SUMMARY:Solar Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: WeConservePA \nJoin WeConservePA for a series of solar seminars following up on the popular Land Conservation Conference session on utility-scale solar development. As energy transitions continue to expand nationally\, and in the Commonwealth\, utility scale solar is being seen as becoming one of the key energy sources of our future. For these sessions\, we will be joined by Tom Murphy\, Director\, Penn State Marcellus Center for Outreach and Research (MCOR) with Penn State Cooperative Extension\, and Brook Duer\, Staff Attorney\, Center for Agricultural and Shale Law with Penn State Law\, as well as other experts in this emerging field.

SUMMARY:Moving towards a 21st Century Sustainable\, Equitable Future for Pennsylvania
DESCRIPTION:Coal demand in the United States has declined precipitously over the last decade and is projected to reach its lowest levels in the coming years. As demand for alternative forms of energy continues to grow\, the needs of coal communities must be at the forefront. \nOur panel of experts will draw on best practices from other states to share a vision for a sustainable Pennsylvania\, with particular attention to the needs of the Appalachian region. Plus\, we’ll talk about how you can be a strong advocate for clean energy equity in the Commonwealth and beyond. \nWhat opportunities for change exist in Pennsylvania? How can you get involved and make your voice heard? Join Vote Solar\, PennFuture\, the Black Appalachian Coalition and Reimagine Appalachia for a webinar discussion about the present and future of clean energy in the Commonwealth!

SUMMARY:Blue/Green Stormwater Infrastructure
DESCRIPTION:“Blue-green” stormwater infrastructure (BGSI) combines water quality and community enriching benefits of “green” infrastructure coupled with the flood reduction and climate resiliency benefits of “blue” infrastructure. Green stormwater infrastructure typically treats and reduces smaller\, more frequent stormwater flows\, and blue stormwater infrastructure temporarily stores larger volumes of stormwater without significant reliance on vegetation. BGSI encompasses both types of infrastructure and often includes such innovative\, “floodable” systems such as “floodable parks”\, “wet plazas”\, and “retention boulevards” that can collectively provide a range of both stormwater-related benefits and other community benefits. In this presentation\, designers from Jacobs will provide an overview of BGSI practices and strategies\, planning and design considerations\, how public spaces might be transformed into dual-purpose (“floodable”) stormwater management opportunities\, cost implications\, and the role of both dynamic (continuous) design and automated (“real-time”) controls.
