LEWISTON — Peter Garrett, the New England coordinator of the Citizens Climate Lobby, will be the featured speaker at the Rotary of Lewiston-Auburn March 23.
Garrett, of Winslow, is an earth scientist by training, and a hydrogeologist by profession, and one of 50,000 CCL volunteers nationwide who meets with members of Congress to discuss a revenue-neutral plan that can serve as a Reagan-like “insurance policy” against the perceived threats of the changing climate, according to the Rotary. The Carbon Fee & Dividend will “level the playing field for energy sources to power our every need, speeding the new industrial revolution already underway towards renewables,” a news release said. “It is fair to all, adds new jobs, builds the economy, improves health and does not increase the size of government.”
Garrett is a past president of the Waterville Rotary Club and past assistant district governor. No reservation is required to attend the meeting, which begins at noon in the Fusion Restaurant at the Ramada, 490 Pleasant St. Lunch is $10.
