Hop on board with decarbonization trends!

Decarbonization means reducing or cutting out carbon dioxide and related greenhouse gas emissions that are released into the atmosphere by human activities. Many actions and technologies support decarbonization work and support efforts to slow global warming.

Don’t let climate gloom get you down. Instead of thinking it may be ‘too late,’ stay inspired to play your part and advocate for others (like big industry and government) to support clean electrification technologies that reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

What is going on here?! This is a solar over which uses reflective panels to direct extra sunlight into the dark oven box! When paired with the clear window, all the heat conducted by the mirrors becomes trapped and heats up —- acting like a greenhouse roof, so the inside temperature continues to rise.

Today! We are exploring how to energize the community to move towards solar in Drake Park! 350 Deschutes is hosting a Solar Sun Day festival from 11 AM until 3 PM! Come enjoy a s’more and learn about renewable energy!

A summary from Energize Bend and audience discussion at the recent Smoke and Heat Safety Workshop! People came to learn from The Environmental Center about the Home Energy Assessment program and about safety during smokey times with information from Deschutes County. Energize Bend presented on energy efficiency in the home to help curb emissions. It was an evening of discussion and learning! Thank you to all those who participated!

How we experience wildfire smoke in Central Oregon may look differently than in another city across the country, but the issue is shared. And in Bend, over 37% of Community Input Survey respondents shared that wildfire smoke in the home is an issue.

Here are some tips to make your home more energy efficient to avoid producing more GHGs, lower your energy bills, and clean indoor air quality — especially during a smoke filled summer.

Also come to our event this upcoming Monday to learn more about smoke and heat safety in your home, and how to get a free portable air filter! Spots are limited so register now!

The event will be held in English and Spanish!

See you at The Central Library, 5-7 PM on 08.31.26.
