SUMMARY:💡Illumination Station 💡
DESCRIPTION:Illuminations Stations are information tables that provide an opportunity to shine a light on ways for people to lower their utility bills\, apply for energy assistance\, and receive items to help them keep money in their pockets! Visit the library to get more information about energy programs and more! \nYou also can bring your old incandescent and compact fluorescent bulbs to swap them for new energy efficient LED light bulbs. You can bring us as many lightbulbs as you want but there is a limit to 3 LEDs per person. *Please note we only provide standard 60 W equivalent LED bulbs that are 2700K meaning they are warm lightbulbs. If you would like to swap out more bulbs\, we encourage you to schedule a Quick Home Energy Checkup with your utility company. \nThis program is in collaboration with Montgomery County Department of Health & Human Services (HHS)\, Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and Pepco.

SUMMARY:RainScape Your Yard – Session II: Plants & Landscape Design for RainScapes Gardens
DESCRIPTION:Session II: Explore strategies to properly size a garden project\, estimate plant quantities\, and create an effective planting plan. Study the range of native plants for managing water runoff and supporting pollinators and wildlife. Learn the steps to develop and submit a plan that qualifies for the RainScapes Rewards Rebate. Registrants will receive a selection of free native plants to take home. \nA RainScape is a landscape or design technique that helps reduce stormwater runoff from individual properties. RainScape projects can include rain gardens\, conservation landscapes\, green roofs\, and permeable pavements. The Montgomery County Department of Environmental Protection offers a rebate program for approved RainScape projects for homeowners. To be eligible for a rebate\, participants must apply and be approved for installation based on a submitted plan before projects are installed. These two sessions are intended to help homeowners create a RainScape design plan. Classes are open to anyone regardless if applying for a RainScape rebate. \n\n\n\n\nNOTE: This in person event will take place in the Visitor Center Auditorium\, located at 1800 Glenallan Avenue\, Wheaton\, MD 20902.\n\n\nREGISTER HERE: https://mdmontgomeryctyweb.myvscloud.com/webtrac/web/iteminfo.html?Module=AR&FMID=196923788

SUMMARY:Climate Restoration: Why restoring a safe climate is the only way to sustain humanity
DESCRIPTION:Most climate action aims to reduce emissions. That’s important…and now wholly insufficient. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nMost climate action aims to reduce emissions. That’s important…and now wholly insufficient. To regain a historically safe climate\, we also need to remove the backlog of a trillion tons of CO2 from the atmosphere by 2050. \nIs that even possible?  Who’s working on it\, and what can everyone do? \nJoin Carole Douglis\, co-author of “Climate Restoration: The Only Future That Will Sustain the Human Race” for a conversation that will transform your thinking about climate. \nQuestions about this program? Contact the branch 240-773-9515. \nLooking for more fun things to do at MCPL? Events \nTake a look at these resources for Climate Change. Don’t have a card right now?  No worries!  Find out how to Get a Library Card. \nAccommodation Requests \nPeople who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing should request English-language captioning or sign-language interpretation at least five days before the library-sponsored program they plan to attend.
