HEST is actively exploring ideas and projects for the upcoming year.\u00a0 At the Harvest Fair on Needham Common on Saturday, September 27, 2014 from 10 to 3, Green Needham will have a table, so come by and chat with us about home energy savings.\u00a0 There, and at Needham events throughout the year, we will be asking folks if they have had a no-cost Mass Save home energy audit, and providing information about and signing them up for this important program.\u00a0 On Monday, October 27, 2017 at 7 p.m. at the Needham Public Library, Green Needham and the<\/p>\n

League of Women Voters are co-sponsoring a presentation entitled “Climate Reality Project” which will inform and bring us up-to-date on the science behind climate change and what can be done to address it.\u00a0 After the presentation, HEST is planning to have tables featuring various home energy savings topics.\u00a0 Finally, HEST will be exploring community solar options, in which folks for whom solar panels on their home is not an option can derive some of their energy from a solar project — we are looking for ways to educate our community on this topic.<\/p>\n

If HEST’s mission and desire to promote home energy savings interests you, please consider becoming involved and help us out.\u00a0 The projects and ideas listed above need volunteers to help make them a reality!\u00a0 Jim Glickman and Maureen Commane head up HEST, and you can reach Jim at jamesglickman1@gmail.com<\/a> , and Maureen at mcbl1@rcn.com<\/a> .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
