A GOAL FOR OUR TOWNS AND OUR ISLAND


An Information Session for Citizens of
Edgartown, Chilmark, and Tisbury
Monday, May 17, 4:00 PM


A briefing on the 100% Renewable Martha’s Vineyard warrant article appearing on spring town warrants.

The article sets these aspirational, non-binding goals:

  • Increase renewable energy in our electricity supply:
    • 50% by 2030, 100% by 2040
  • Reduce fossil fuel use on island:
    • 50% by 2030, 100% by 2040
  • Foster biosphere carbon capture through land use, saving and increasing wetlands, and growing woodlands

Why aspire to these goals? How can we achieve them? Panelists will answer these questions and respond to yours.
