Renewable Energy: Think Globally, Act Locally

Body:
In celebration of Earth Day, the C&C on April 21, 8-10 am, will be focused on Renewable Energy: Think Globally, Act Locally and will take place at Rochester’s own Quarry Hill Nature Center. Enjoy some Dunn Bros. coffee while engaging in conversation about renewable energy.
