Welcome to Climate Action Day 2018, Exeter’s fourth annual day devoted to climate education for our community! The Committee is so excited about this year’s lineup of events and workshops, which we hope you will peruse as you contemplate what draws you in.

We hope you encounter the amazing student environmental work happening on campus, and so we are offering the following workshops and events designed and facilitated by students: The Exeter Exchange workshop; an E-proctor Hydroponics workshop; a Divest Exeter! workshop; performances by the Concert Choir featuring Eric Sinclair and Democracy of Sound (exeter); The Three Ecologies, a community film festival hosted by the Lamont Gallery featuring original short films by students and faculty as well as performances by Art and Activism club, Exeteras, and PEADS.

We encourage you to scan the rest of the workshop slate, which contains an array of visiting speakers, scholars, and activists as well as myriad opportunities to head outside and get your hands dirty doing helpful environmental field work.

Did you ever wonder…
Is the Academy doing its part to cut its emissions of greenhouse gasses?
How could you make ice in the rinks with superheated steam?
And what’s under that smokestack behind the gymnasium?

Tour the Academy’s heating plant with manager Mr. Mike Nugent and learn about how the Academy boils and recycles thousands of gallons of water every day to heat and cool the spaces we live and work in, and how we use updated technologies to get these jobs done with environmental stewardship in mind.  Each participant will receive a “treasure hunt” puzzle to discover key facts and surprising stories of PEA’s energy use and production.
