Water and energy are two of today's biggest environmental and social challenges. A thriving Wisconsin depends on clean and abundant water, and on energy sources that meet our needs, but don't make climate change worse. How are we doing on meeting those challenges?

Join us for a daylong discussion of resilience, hosted by the Wisconsin Academy of Sciences, Arts & Letters.

Panel discussions will explore:
   Advances in energy efficiency, conservation, and renewable energy that can shape a greener future
   Opportunities for safeguarding our state's freshwater ecosystems

Workshop options include:
   Starting a fruitful conversation on climate change
   Using values and norms to communicate water issues
   Improving approaches to integrated water management
   Examining food, water, and energy connections

In the closing address, Torbjörn Lahti, co-founder of Sweden's first "eco-municipality," will lead the charge for sustainedand sustainableprogress toward a thriving Wisconsin.
