350 Placer Helping the Planet, One Question (and One Beer) at a Time

On Thursday, March 8th from 6-7:30pm, the group 350 Placer will be holding its third “Hot Climate, Cold Beer” trivia night at the Moonraker Brewing Company in Auburn. The night will be a great time for old and new friends to support a local business and enjoy some beer, while learning about climate change. Admission is free and there is a suggested donation of $5 to participate in the trivia game. Funds raised will help with the group’s future efforts.
350 Placer is a group of residents who joined together to promote clean, sustainable living in Placer County. Since its formation in early 2017, its focus has been on educating residents about climate change. It also holds small gatherings at local venues to promote the consumption of food from local farmers. The group is inspired by the international group 350.org, a grassroots organization dedicated to reducing carbon levels to no more than 350 parts per million. The number 350 is the level of carbon believed to be safe and sustainable for life on our planet.
One of 350 Placer’s primary goals is to help educate the community about small things we all can do today to make a big difference.
As current science states, it is not too late to change our course if we act now. “Hot Climate, Cold Beer” will address ways we can help. 350 Placer can be found on Facebook and at www.350Placer.org. Questions about the “Hot Climate, Cold Beer” or the group can be directed to Danielle at 916-320-7584. “Hot Climate, Cold Beer” will be held at the Moonraker Brewing Company located at 12970 Earhart Ave in Auburn.
