Thanks to all who came out for our first ever Focus the Nation event! Major thanks to
Beth Wiley, Noelle Saint-Cyr, Ken Hall and the Hatfield Sustainablility Committee for the success of this event. Focus the Nation was part of a national teach-in on global warming solutions on the imperative for taking action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The event featured 5 different speakers with the focus on simple, take home actions for citizens and the broader imperative for action at the municipal, county and state level. Local officials were invited to speak on behalf of local efforts and hear what other communities are doing to take action.
