SUMMARY:The Climate-Resilient Grid (CM | TBD)
DESCRIPTION:This symposium brings together thought leaders from industry\, government and academia to work side by side with climate experts. Together we explore how climate science and data can inform energy challenges related to integrating renewables into the grid. Raising the level of renewables requires efficient transmission lines and new systems of microgrids\, which in turn requires climate data\, analytics and environmental intelligence. These topics will be extensively explored during this two-day conference. APA CM credits approved. \nRegister Online

SUMMARY:2017 Urban Planning Conference (CM | 6.0)

This year’s conference theme is “Equity Planning: Creating Diverse and Inclusive Communities”.\n \nThis year’s conference will focus on equity planning to address the widening gap between prosperous communities and those that continue to be disenfranchised.

His office is a countywide effort to address the root causes of inequities working with all county agencies and the community. He will present and discuss the implementation of The Equity and Social Justice Strategic Plan that collectively established a set of values to achieve a goal of equity and social justice for all residents of King County\, Washington.\n \nAll sessions are open to the public. All participants must register and pay the conference fees of $50 (presenters and regular participants) or $75 (AICP participants who are seeking CM Credits). The conference offers up to 6 hours CM Credits pending approval by the American Planning Association.
