THE ENERGY COMMITTEE

In our efforts to offset Global Warming, Green Decade´s Energy Committee educates residents, business people, and institutions about wise energy use, energy efficiency and renewable energy.

We educate the community about renewable energy and energy efficiency through designing, financing, installing, operating and troubleshooting demonstration projects.  We create models that enable and encourage other community groups to do similar projects.

Our Kyoto Project is a subcommittee. Please click below to learn more about all our Programs!
