Our Living Lean & Green workshop introduces you to the impact of global warming on our community, and to a set of simple tools to reduce your energy consumption and save you money. The five-session workshop is designed to help you reduce your 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 workshops is listed below. Please check back periodically for new workshops. Contact Julie Williams, Living Lean & Green Workshop Manager, at jwilliams@cacefindiana.org if your organization or group would like to arrange a Living Lean & Green 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.

You can find more information, as well as test your carbon footprint here.
