Madison Rotary Breakfast Speaker for July
On Thursday, July 27th, Rotarians will welcome Ms. Claire Whitcomb, Chair of the Madison Environmental Commission. Ms. Whitcomb will address the aquifer, where our drinking water comes from, the role of trees as buffers to stormwater runoff, and the need to consider conservation in our homes and in planning. Alarmingly, Madison’s water usage doubles in the summer.
The Madison Environmental Commission is a three-time recipient of an Environmental Achievement Award from the Association of NJ Environmental Commissions. Ms. Whitcomb is a magazine journalist who has also worked in sustainable fashion for many years.
