SUMMARY:GNC Program: Greening Your Electricity: How you can choose clean energy
DESCRIPTION:Green Needham will explain the options for any electric customer to bring more renewable energy into the grid — even if you’re not a candidate for solar panels. The list of green energy choices is growing — from having a share in a “solar garden” to opting to buy green power. What are the different green energy choices\, how do those options support clean energy\, and how do they affect your electric bill? After a brief presentation\, there will be time to ask questions and to speak with representatives of various green energy offerings. \nThe program will take place the Needham Library at 7 p.m. on Monday\, March 2. \nTake this opportunity to learn more about your options\, and then take action to opt for “green energy” – your choice can make a difference in addressing climate change and reducing greenhouse gases.

SUMMARY:Green Decade Newton: “The Power of One Voice” Film Showing
DESCRIPTION:Please join Green Decade Newton for our Wednesday\, April 22 at 7pm Earth Day Program – “The Power of One Voice” film & discussion. This new film examines the life of Rachel Carson and the profound impact of her book\, Silent Spring. Carson\, one of the most influential people of the 20th century\, taught that our health depends on the quality of our environment.

The film includes Carson’s son\, her biographer\, and scientists who describe her courage in the face of adversity and the chemical industry campaign to discredit her. Ellie Goldberg\, Founder Healthy-Kids. info\, a consulting service that promotes health security and educational equity for students with chronic health conditions\, will lead a Q & A after the film.  \nLocation: Drucker Auditorium\, Newton Free Library.
