In “What Our Emissions Tell Us,” Qazi and Farrell will address where the greenhouse gas emissions in Wenatchee and Chelan County are coming from and what we can do about it. Our Valley Our Future (OVOF) and Sustainable NCW conducted the first ever greenhouse gas inventory for the City of Wenatchee and Chelan County to measure local and imported emissions. Qazi and Farrell will explain the findings and let participants know about community projects and WVC’s efforts that could help address them. 

Participants will have an opportunity to ask questions during a Q&amp;A session at the end of the lecture.  Get to know our community between 5-6 p.m. and enjoy light refreshments provided by the President's Office!

She has been a member of the OVOF Post Carbon Economy working group for several years and a former two-term board member of Sustainable NCW. Qazi helps fellow faculty to include climate science, solutions, and justice in their course curriculum.  

Marlene Farrell is the executive director of Sustainable NCW, a nonprofit focused on fostering stewardship of our environment and community through education and opportunities for action that reduce waste, lower our carbon footprint, and strengthen the health of people and place.
