Water & Environment Task Force

Let’s talk about carbon neutrality! Join the East Bay Leadership Council’s Water and Environment Task Force for a discussion with Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) about recent research on negative carbon emission options and permitting carbon capture projects. This is a great opportunity to learn about carbon capture and storage projects in California and explore ideas for meeting the state’s ambitious carbon reduction goals.
