Free event educates on energy survival

To the Editor:

Our current administration continues to cut our environmental protections, the most recent being the plan to dissolve the Environmental Protection Agency Office of the Science Advisor. We are now increasingly on our own.

I would urge everyone to take advantage of the Third Annual Renewable Energy and Sustainable Living Fair at Doane Stuart School on Oct. 20 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. This is an entirely free public event.

Over 50 organizations, vendors, and 23 workshop presenters will offer workshops on a variety of topics. It is the largest event of its kind in the Capital District and beyond.

Come and learn about community solar that even renters can purchase, geothermal, waste reduction, plant-based eating, zero-energy buildings, clean energy workforce opportunities, and energy efficiency including home audits.

We also will have electric vehicles on site so attendees can ask questions and get answers.

Meet people who know how our energy survival is so vital now and must be put into practice by all of us.
