Welcome, Guest

Columbia Building Green

Sumaya Conners and Sharifa Perry attended a seminar titled "SOLAR ENERGY for your HOME - The Options and The Imperatives", held in Chatham, NY at theTracy Memorial.  A panel consisting of Solar Power company, NYSERDA representative and our Columbia County representative of our Congresswoman, Kirsten Gillibrand.

Talk was about what kind of solar energy are available;  what does it cost;  how much will I save on energy bills, can I retro fit my current home;  who are the people I should be talking to;  will I have power during blackout.

The seminar was well attended, over 50 people from all over the County,  which also gave us an intro to our own organization COLUMBIA COUNTY GREEN TOWNS INITIATIVES and announcing our first meet up on February 2, 2008 at 10AM at the Farmers' Market on Church Street in Chatham, NY.
