Energize Acton

This Earth Day join us for a tour of Acton’s award-winning Gates and Douglas School, known as the Boardwalk Campus. Drawing on geothermal power (ground source heat pumps) and utilizing other special technologies, this school has blown past all its energy-saving predictions. Schools Energy Manager Kate Crosby will share all the cool details. Nibbles, brief talk, and tour. Register at: https://energizeacton.org/event/clean-energy-school-tour  

Bob Zogg, co-founder of the HeatSmart Alliance, and Kit Wu, of the Laminar Collective, share their great knowledge of home heat pumps and pricing. Find out about air source and ground source heat pumps for improved heating/cooling energy efficiency, air quality, home comfort, and low emissions. Plus, learn about significant Mass Save incentives. Register for Zoom link at: https://energizeacton.org/event/heat-pumps-101/  

As the state legislature considers cutting back on clean energy incentives, do climate goals still matter? Is a renewable future too challenging and, as some claim, too expensive? Join Amanda Barker of the Green Energy Consumers Alliance as she looks at Massachusetts climate goals, where we stand at reaching targets (looking at heating and cooling goals in particular), and why renewable energy is not only doable but necessary for a reliable, independent, healthy energy future.
