Capitol Hill Greening Effort

 

 

CHEnergy Fest—October 24, 2009

 

The Capitol Hill Green Team invites residents to the CHEnergy Fest Saturday, October 24 from 10 am to 2 pm at the CHUN Community Center, 1290 Williams Street (north end of Cheesman Park). 

 

This event is  designed to help residents take actions that will conserve energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.   Come enjoy free food and live music, and learn how to save money and reduce energy consumption at home.  Residents can sign up for a free street tree, free curb-side recycling, a low-cost home energy audit, and Xcel’s Windsource program, which allows residents to purchase wind energy for their homes.  Free home energy audits, weatherization and energy upgrades are available to some households, depending on income. Significant rebates are available to everyone.

 

The event coincides with the 350.org International Day of Climate Action.  350 refers to 350 parts per million (ppm) of greenhouse gasses in the Earth's atmosphere. Scientists say that 350 is the maximum safe level to prevent climate change disasters. Human impacts have already raised levels to over 390 ppm.   The City of Denver has a Climate Action Agenda with a goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 10 percent by 2012.  We can do our part for Denver to help reach that goal, plus improve the quality of life for everyone.

CHEnergy Fest sponsors include Greenprint Denver, Capitol Hill United Neighborhoods (CHUN) and Capitol Hill United Ministries (CHUM). 

 

To volunteer for the day of the event or for more information, contact Cody Galloway at codygalloway@chundenver.org or 303-830-1651.
