In Rhode Island? Join Nancy Lee Wood for a talk tomorrow night on post carbon future

The state of Rhode Island is not only smarting from one of the highest unemployment rates in the country, but is still cleaning up after torrential spring rains caused record flooding through the Pawtucket and Providence areas. So tomorrow's talk by Nancy Lee Wood, entitled "Entering the Post-Carbon Era: The Future Isn't What It Used To Be", is particularly timely.

Wood is an Institute Professor at Bristol Community College, and has spoken on and off campus on preparing for the age after the age of fossil fuels, including last year's southern New England Regional AfD meeting in Newton, Massachusetts.

Her talk starts at 7:00 p.m. (Thursday, June 3), in the Rochambeau Library Community Room, Hope Street at Rochambeau, Providence, Rhode Island. It is sponsored by R.I. Progressive Coalition, and is the second in the series "Jobs in Rhode Island: Influencing Factors." For information, please contact Ruth at rweiz@theworld.com.
