Our one-hour Living Lean & Green presentation introduces individuals and households to the impact of global warming on our community, and to a set of simple tools to reduce our energy consumption and save money.
Our Living Lean & Green workshop delves further into the impact of global warming on our community as participants explore and implement numerous home energy-saving strategies that will save them money. The five-session workshop is designed to help participants reduce their household carbon dioxide “footprint” by at least 5,000 pounds by going on a “low carbon” diet.
Our current schedule of Living Lean and Green presentations and workshops is listed below. In order to sign up for these events, you must first login or register as a user on this website, then you can sign up below for the events you would like to attend.
Please check our site periodically for new presentations and workshops. Please contact Kathryn Williams, CIEEP program manager, at kwilliams@cacefindiana.org if your organization or group would like to arrange a Living Lean and Green presentation or workshop other than those listed below.
The Living Lean and Green Workshops use the Low Carbon Diet: a 30-day program to Lose 5,000 Pounds, written by David Gershon. You can purchase a copy of this book online by clicking on the title and following the link, or you can print the mail-in order form to order by mail. The books will also be available to purchase at the workshops for a suggested donation of $15.
