Sustainable Flatbush and its partners will host a Neighborhood Energy Forum
If you’ve been thinking its time to do something about being always cold at your house, or frying in your apartment, this is it. You absolutely have to attend this event!
Sustainable Flatbush has put together what promises to be a one-stop-shop for homeowners, tenant organizations, landlords, and building managers to learn what they need to get started with major energy efficiency projects — from energy audits to weatherization to solar-electric, for large multi-family buildings and 1-4 family homes.
The Neighborhood Energy Forum will give you the information you need to navigate the maze of programs and take the first steps toward making your project a reality.
Energy Fair will feature contractors who specialize in this kind of work.
Elected Officials scheduled to attend:
New York State Senator Kevin Parker
New York State Assembly members Rhoda Jacobs and James Brennan
Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz (representative)
New York City Council members Mathieu Eugene, Brad Lander, and Jumaane Williams
“Inefficiency drives up energy costs, contributes to air pollution (almost 80% of New York City’s greenhouse gas emissions are produced by buildings), and hurts everybody, especially low-income people. That is why Sustainable Flatbush is organizing this event, to help residential building stakeholders raise the money they need for major energy efficiency upgrades and renewable energy projects, and for neighbors to share resources and best practices,” says Anne Pope, Executive Director of Sustainable Flatbush.
Space is limited. Please register here to attend.
