SUMMARY:Needham Adult Education: Zero Energy Home
DESCRIPTION:Peter Kane\, Instructor  \nJoin us to learn about the design and construction of a zero net energy home built in Westwood three years ago. The owner/designer/builder will present a slide show illustrating the important design considerations\, construction details\, and the finished home. The presentation will also cover the cost of the construction\, how the home has performed over the three years\, what it is like to live in it\, and what mistakes were made that could be avoided – and answer the question of whether solar energy really works. (Hint: the electric company owes him money!) Note: a Saturday morning tour of the home is included in the course fee.  \nNHS – Room 206 \nOct. 15\, 7-8:30 pm \nplus one Saturday morning visit to the zero energy home: @ 149 Ellis St.\, Westwood\, MA 02090 10-11am Oct. 17 \n$35

SUMMARY:Too Good to Waste: Creative Solutions to Reducing Food Waste
DESCRIPTION:It’s shocking to realize that 40% of the food in America is wasted – culled as imperfect and unsalable by producers\, discarded by grocery stores\, uneaten at restaurants and cafeterias\, and thrown away in people’s homes.  At the same time\, over 49 million people in America do not know where their next meal is coming from.  What can be done to address these two issues?  Green Needham and the League of Women Voters of Needham are co-sponsoring a forum on Thursday\, October 22 beginning at 7:30 pm at the Needham Library Community Room to discuss this issue. \nWe will present the problem and hear about what Massachusetts and the town of Needham are doing to find solutions.  You will also come away with tips for what you can do as a consumer and an eater.\n\nPlease join us.

SUMMARY:Needham Community Education: Judging the Environmental Impact of Products
DESCRIPTION:Benjamin Linder\, Professor of Design and Mechanical Engineering \nWe make decisions every day that have environmental consequences without knowing their real impacts.
