This is a free workshop and the first ten households to register will receive a free weatherization kit. Register at http://greenergleaners.weebly.com/blog/weathering-the-weather-more-efficiently.
Learn how houses, apartments and condos waste energy and why they can be too hot or too cold. C3 Volunteers and representatives from the Citizens Utility Board will share easy ways to make your home more comfortable and less expensive to heat and cool.
The environmental learning continues for the next 2 workshops:
Saturday, March 25th, 1:00 p.m., at Willye White Park Fieldhouse: “Water, water everywhere, but is it safe to drink?“ with Rain Ready, the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District and the the Citizen’s Utility Board.
Saturday, April 22nd, 1:00 p.m., at Willye White Park Fieldhouse: “Cost efficient ways to stay connected” with Elevate Energy, The Recyclery, the Citizens Utility Board, the Chicago Bicycle Ambassadors and the Active Transportation Alliance.
C3 is a partnership between the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum and the City of Chicago to provide Chicago residents with the training to make their communities more sustainable.
All 3 workshops are organized by 49th Ward residents and C3 Leaders, Yvonne White-More, Tonia Andreina, Jenny Prokopy and Gaye Durst.
The 49th Ward is home to one of Chicago’s largest concentrations of C3 Leaders and C3 projects. In fact, the Annual Trash to Treasure Swap was originally a C3 project put together by a former 49th Ward resident, Autumn Franger.
