Class on Community Energy Solutions at Greenfield Community College 1/11 and 1/18

One of the most inspiring things I get to do is to teach a class at GCC on Community Energy Solutions. The next session is coming up the next two Saturdays and I thought you might like to know about it.

The class is participatory – full of field trips and discussions.  The students are always wonderful – a great cross-section of people of different ages and backgrounds, people who know a lot about the subject and people who are brand new to it all. The conversations are insightful.  We all come out with new ways of understanding the world and, even better, new ways to talk with other people about these important issues in a compassionate way.

It’s a great way to get an overview of what you can do to make a difference in the world of energy and climate change.

We’ve also hooked up a lot of people who take this class with internships and jobs.

This semester we’ll be studying Harvard Solar Gardens and Northeast Biodiesel as our case studies and we’ll take a field trip to learn about the energy efficiency and renewable energy upgrades three different families have done on their homes.
