Cumulus clouds hover above Mt. Washington last summer. The clouds are usually the sign of where one layer of atmosphere – the boundary layer – ends and another – the free troposphere – begins. Mt. Washington Obervatory director of research has a hypothesis that the summit of Mt. Washington isn’t warming as quickly as other mountain summits due to the summit sitting between these two layers of atmosphere.

Wednesday will see the last online opportunity to talk to planners at the Department of Environmental Services about the state’s proposed Comprehensive Climate Action Plan (CCAP). 

The CCAP is a competitive program from the federal Environmental Protection Agency giving money to deal with significant greenhouse gas sources across economic sectors in New Hampshire.

The funding is intended for community-engaged projects that reduce emissions while supporting good jobs while lowering energy costs, and reducing air pollution in places where people live, work, play, and go to school. 

These engagement sessions are the culmination of a 2-year process to learn about projects around the state.

The Zoom event will occur on Wednesday, Nov. 5, from 5:30-6:30 p.m. Registration is required. RSVP at  bit.ly/EngagementCCAP
