The workshop series will be held on consecutive Wednesday evenings, starting March 13, from 7 to 8:15 pm, covering the following topics:

  • March 20: Green Homes, a survey of ideas for greening our homes such as energy audits, community solar and zero waste.


 

  • March 27: Green Community, ways we can improve our community, such as green investing and low-impact transportation options.


 

  • April 3: Green World, what can we do in the larger world, featuring our Honduras project and Solar Sister, an NGO bringing clean energy technologies to East Africa.
