Q: What can one person do against global climate change?

 

A: Invest in solar energy!

 

But…

1)  I’m not rich!

2)  I’m not a homeowner!

3)  My house is too shady for solar power!

 

Don’t worry!  You can still help increase solar power and

decrease fossil fuel consumption by joining the

Citizens Energy Cooperative of Wisconsin.

 

You are invited to a DOERS potluck and presentation on

Sat., March 25, 2006 at 6 p.m.

at

Orchard Ridge United Church of Christ

1501 Gilbert Rd., Madison

(Accessible via Metrobus # 50 from the West Transfer Point)

     There will be great food, live music, interesting people and a chance to learn all the details about the savings you can reap, the tax incentives waiting for you, and the Focus on Energy rebates that are possible if you want to install a solar hot water system on your home, for hot water or for in floor radiant heating.

     And you’ll learn how you can be a member and investor in the CEC, promoting solar power and creating good jobs in our area, for a modest amount of money.  There will be a presentation by Camomile Nusz of the CEC, dessert provided by DOERS, Cajun music provided by members of The Cajun Strangers, and 2 door prizes worth $200 each: site assessments for suitability of solar systems.

Help us put CEC membership in Madison over the top!

     When the Citizens Energy Cooperative of Wisconsin gets 40 members in one community, it builds a major installation at a school, hotel, swimming pool, etc.  They currently have 17 members in Madison.  DOERS’ goal is to help them reach 40 on March 25.  Please come with your checkbook and an open mind, and you may become part of the solution to our climate problems!   If you live in a neighboring community, and want your membership to count there instead of in Madison, that is fine too.  Perhaps you can bring several (or 39!) friends with you, and be the start of a campaign to get a major installation in your town!
