SUMMARY:CACOR Live | Janet Janzen | Responding to Energy Inequity | 10 Jun 2026 13:30 EST
DESCRIPTION:CACOR Members and Associates are invited to the following CACOR Live presentation: \nSpeaker:  Janet Janzen \nSubject:  Responding to Energy Inequity \nTime: 10 Jun 2026 13:30 Eastern Time (US and Canada) \n(This presentation will be recorded and posted on our public YouTube channel within 48 hours afterwards!) \nMembers can pick up the live connection (Zoom) information at:  Canadian Association for the Club of Rome – CACOR Live: Janet Janzen- Responding to Energy Inequity \nNot a member yet? Click HERE to join or get more details on benefits. \n \nSummary: \nPresented by Janet Janzen\, this session examines community solar as an emerging policy and market mechanism for addressing energy inequity. Focusing on comparative developments in the United States and Canada\, the presentation will analyze the regulatory\, economic\, and social conditions that have enabled the growth of community solar in the U.S.\, while also identifying the structural and policy barriers that have constrained adoption in Canada. Particular attention will be given to questions of energy access\, affordability\, and equity\, as well as to the policy lessons that may inform a more inclusive clean energy transition in the Canadian context. \nBiography: \nJanet Janzen is a Senior Manager of Marketing & Communications at PureSky Energy\, where she leads marketing\, media relations\, and external communications for key company initiatives and milestones. \nShe is a marketing communications leader with more than 8 years of experience in marketing\, including 5+ years in the solar and clean energy sector\, specializing in brand strategy\, content development\, public relations\, and digital marketing. Known for her editorial rigor and hands on approach\, she builds integrated communications programs that elevate brand visibility\, support demand generation\, and align executive\, commercial\, and technical stakeholders. \nAt PureSky Energy\, her responsibilities include cross-channel content strategy\, campaign development\, brand management\, and media relations\, helping drive customer engagement and support the company’s growth in community solar and energy storage markets. \nJanet holds a Ph.D. in German Studies from McGill University\, bringing a strong analytical foundation to her work in sustainability and energy communications. \nLinks: \nCanadian Association of the Club of Rome (CACOR) homepage https://canadiancor.com/ \nCACOR YouTube www.youtube.com/@canadianassociationforthec7885 \n  \nAdministration: \n–  The CACOR Sponsor Claude Buettner \n–  Please invite friends and colleagues. \n–  One brief question at a time\, please.   Others are waiting. \n–  DO NOT post these credentials on social media. \nAll future CACOR Live speakers presently scheduled: \nCACOR Live Schedule – Canadian Association for the Club of Rome \n

SUMMARY:CACOR Live | Mitchell Beer | An Energy Transition In Real Time: How Canada’s Fossil Fuel Exports Could Collapse\, and Why Energy Modelling Missed the Memo | 17 Jun 2026 13:30 EST
DESCRIPTION:CACOR Members and Associates are invited to the following CACOR Live presentation: \nSpeaker: Mitchell Beer \nSubject: An Energy Transition In Real Time: How Canada’s Fossil Fuel Exports Could Collapse\, and Why Energy Modelling Missed the Memo \nTime: 17 Jun 2026 13:30 Eastern Time (US and Canada) \n(This presentation will be recorded and posted on our public YouTube channel within 48 hours afterwards!) \nMembers can pick up the live connection (Zoom) information at: Canadian Association for the Club of Rome – CACOR Live: Mitchell Beer – How Canada’s Fossil Fuel Exports Could Collapse \nNot a member yet? Click HERE to join or get more details on benefits. \n \nSummary: \nThe mounting alarm over Canada’s fossil fuel agenda assumes there will be long-term demand for the oil and gas the Carney government seems so determined to export. That was a questionable proposition before the deep disruption in the Strait of Hormuz. Now\, the shift to renewables is accelerating\, as energy-importing countries that are home to three-quarters of the world’s population look to a fossil-free future—motivated not by emissions\, but by energy costs and security. The risk for Canada is a future of stranded assets if the government takes its own pro-sovereignty\, anti-Alberta separatist playbook too seriously. \nBiography: \nMitchell Beer is publisher of The Energy Mix\, a non-profit community news site and e-digest on energy and climate change. He traces his background in renewable energy and energy efficiency to 1977\, in climate change to 1997\, and has worked to connect climate solutions with audiences outside the immediate “bubble” of climate concern. \nLinks: \nCanadian Association of the Club of Rome (CACOR) homepage https://canadiancor.com/ \nCACOR YouTube www.youtube.com/@canadianassociationforthec7885 \n  \nAdministration: \n–  The CACOR Sponsor Raymond Leury \n–  Please invite friends and colleagues. \n–  One brief question at a time\, please.   Others are waiting. \n–  DO NOT post these credentials on social media. \nAll future CACOR Live speakers presently scheduled: \nCACOR Live Schedule – Canadian Association for the Club of Rome \n
