[SustainableTompkins] Free In-Home Energy Efficiency Training

[Sean Vormwald]

*Do you want to learn how to save money at the gas pump and on your 
utility bills?
*Would you like to make your home healthier and reduce your impact on 
the environment, but don’t know where to begin?

Then please join us for this free learning opportunity related to saving 
money and conserving resources.

The Energy Efficiency Community Outreach (EECO) program offers a chance 
for people to learn how to make do-it-yourself improvements to their 
homes and vehicles in order to conserve resources and save money. EECO 
partners with professional experts who demonstrate how to make vehicles 
more fuel efficient, weatherize homes, complete easy kitchen and bath 
repairs, reduce electricity bills, and make homes more comfortable.

The EECO learning circles consist of four weekly sessions taking place 
in participants’ homes. The sessions of the next circle will be from 
6:30-8:30 p.m. on Wednesday evenings from June 25-July 16.

Participants get hands-on experience learning about their homes and 
cars, and for participating in the program they also receive free 
materials like weather stripping and compact fluorescent light bulbs 
that they can put to use. All of the sessions are free and food is 
provided at each one.

a non-profit organization that seeks to expand the regional marketplace 
for sustainable living through consumer education and workforce training 
in energy efficiency, renewable energy, green building, and green 
purchasing. EECO and the Green Resource Hub are projects of Sustainable 
Tompkins.
