The Green New Deal and the battle over renewable energy versus removing the four dams on the Snake River creates controversy, drama, and will have enormous impact for everyone in the Pacific Northwest

What is missing in the conversation is just how much solar, wind and other alternative energy sources will be required to replace the hyrdo-electric power that would be removed with the dams?

From renewable and alternative energy sources, to fossil fuels, to hydro-electric generation, Bob Morris is an expert that will break down and explain what the real impact will be to our landscape and communities will be able to replace the energy from the dams with today's current renewable sources.

While the plan to remove the dams aims to restore native salmon populations, the potential environmental and financial challenges of replacing lost hydroelectric power to meet the increasing energy demands for both our homes and our businesses will have a significant impact on everyone.

Whether you're a business owner, energy professional, policymaker, sustainability enthusiast, or simply concerned about future power rates, this event will leave you informed, inspired, and equipped, to engage in making informed energy decisions that will affect our future.
