WATERVILLE — A presentation by Peter Garrett, Citizens Climate Lobby — A Climate Solution for Everyone — And You Can Help, is set for 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 22, in room 122 of the Diamond Building at Colby College.

Garrett, Citizens Climate Lobby coordinator for Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont, will share methods of connecting with all members of Congress. These include relationship building with staff, careful listening, and presentation of a proposal acceptable to Republicans and Democrats, called Carbon Fee and Dividend.

This fee will result in the pricing of carbon fuels to reflect the actual costs to health and the environment. The goal of this group is to work with Congress to pass legislation that will reduce carbon emissions while stimulating the economy.

A snow date is set for 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 23, in room 141 of the Diamond Building at Colby College.
