"LIGHTEN UP CAROLINE!" ON APRIL 19 -- CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS
Energy Independent Caroline is a local group of citizens working to
declare independence from fossil fuels in the Town of Caroline. As
part of a grassroots education & outreach campaign, the group will
distribute one energy-saving compact-fluorescent lightbulb to all
1,400 households in the Town of Caroline on Saturday April 19.
The project "Lighten Up Caroline!" will collectively save residents
$70,000 in energy bills and reduce carbon emissions by over 800,000
pounds. That's the equivalent of stopping the burning of 38,000
gallons of gasoline, and equals the amount of carbon sequestered
annually by 77 acres of pine forests!
Volunteers will go door-to-door in pairs on Saturday April 19 from
11:00am to 3:30pm. Over 150 volunteers are needed. Meet neighbors and
make history! Every volunteer will receive lunch and a
compact-fluorescent lightbulb.
Sign up today! Sign up individually or as a group. If you can commit
to volunteering, email energyindependentcaroline at gmail.com by April 6!
