SUMMARY:Bring Your Own New Clean Energy: Powering PA's Data Center Energy Demand
DESCRIPTION:As electricity demand rises across Pennsylvania—driven in part by the rapid growth of energy-hungry data centers—policymakers face an important choice: invest in clean energy or continue relying on costly\, polluting fossil fuels. \nJoin PennFuture for the release of our latest white paper and hear from Senior Director for Energy and Climate Rob Altenburg about why renewable energy and battery storage are the most effective solutions for meeting growing energy demand. Learn how Pennsylvania can strengthen grid reliability\, lower costs for everyday Pennsylvanians\, and ensure that new energy demand from data centers is met with clean energy—not more fossil fuels.

SUMMARY:Action Hour: Stop the theft of our public lands & waters
DESCRIPTION:Our public lands belong to all of us. These are the forests you hiked as a kid. The river your family fishes every summer. The national monument you visited with friends on vacation. These irreplaceable landscapes and waters are under attack by corrupt politicians who want to sell them off to the highest bidder\, one backroom deal at a time. \nThat’s why on Wednesday\, July 29\, we’re hosting a virtual hour of action with Sierra Club’s Executive Director Loren Blackford to protect our public lands together. \nJoin Us! \nDuring our action hour together\, we’ll: \nGet the scoop: Hear from Sierra Club’s Executive Director Loren Blackford about what’s happening and how we can effectively fight back to protect our lands and waters.\nTake action: Learn why we’re calling our members of Congress\, how to call effectively\, and watch a live preview so you know exactly what to say. Then\, we’ll make our calls together.\nConnect and grow: During our short breakout session\, learn from other advocates from around the country\, and discuss how we can strengthen our movement. Because the more of us who show up\, the harder we are to ignore!

SUMMARY:Fracking Fuels Data Centers – Protective Buffers Make Communities Safer
DESCRIPTION:Join the Protective Buffers PA coalition on Wednesday\, July 29\, at 7 p.m. for a discussion on how the proposed AI data center buildout in Pennsylvania could lead to more fracking in our communities. \nRegister here! \nYou’ll hear from experts about the risks that increased fracking poses to human health and the environment\, and why increased protective buffer distances from new fracking wells are needed more than ever. Importantly\, you’ll learn about how you can join the movement working to better protect our communities. \nProtective Buffers PA is a coalition of advocates currently petitioning the PA Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to increase the minimum allowed distances (or\, “protective buffers”) between new fracking well pads and our homes\, schools\, businesses\, and waterways. While the DEP considers the petition\, we need your help to demonstrate that there is broad support for this protective change. \nRegister today for the July 29 webinar! \n

SUMMARY:Summer Photowalk with Ned Levi @ Rt. 420 parking lot
DESCRIPTION:Wildlife Photowalks are designed to photograph all kinds of wildlife including birds\, amphibians\, reptiles\, mammals\, insects\, wildflowers\, etc.\, while we learn how to do it well and avoid wildlife photography pitfalls.

SUMMARY:Tree Care Program in Chester\, Ridley & Crum Creek Watersheds
DESCRIPTION:Traditionally CRC has wrapped up the spring tree care season in May and started up again in September.  This year we are launching a robust tree care program that will run throughout the summer months!  While it’s not the best time to plant new trees\, it is a great time to care for trees we have already planted.\n\nWork will include re-mulching\, removing old cages/stakes and placing new ones if needed\, and clearing out weeds and invasives.\n\nSome sites need only 3-5 volunteers\, some need 10-15 people\, while other sites can take unlimited help!\n\nIf you can help\, please respond and let me know the dates when you can volunteer.  Once we reach capacity for each site\, I will ask additional willing helpers to sign up for other sites in need.\n\nI will email details to all registered volunteers\, including exact address and parking instructions\, the week of each event.  \n\nFriday 8/7 in Newtown Square from 9am-12pm\n\nCRC thanks you and the trees thank you!\n\n  \n\n\n\n\nLynn Meza\nDirector of Volunteerism \nCRC (Chester Ridley Crum) Watersheds Association\nwww.crcwatersheds.org
