Twin Ports Climate Conversations (TPCC) invites you to its first event of 2026 on Tuesday, February 17, starting at noon.
For the past decade, Twin Ports Climate Conversations has been a collaborative effort among regional partners to bring professionals, community members, and organizations together around locally relevant topics, from forest health and green infrastructure to coastal preparedness and community resilience. Looking ahead, our planning team is exploring how TPCC can continue to evolve to serve the region best.
This will not be a typical presentation. This one‑hour, interactive webinar is dedicated to listening and gathering ideas from participants. Of interest is what topics matter most to attendees, what formats are most helpful, and how TPCC can continue to support practical, community‑focused conversations in the coastal region.
During the session, attendees will take part in quick, anonymous polls to help identify priority topics and preferred approaches for future events. The planning team will begin with a brief overview of TPCC’s history and accomplishments, but most of the time will focus on participant insights and suggestions.
This free event is open to the public. Registration is required.
