As you know, Greening Oakland Homes aims to help Oakland homeowners improve their carbon footprints. We are now looking for input, regarding your energy-saving priorities – and here’s note from our director, Laura Anderson:
You can make a difference for your family and even the world by “greening” your home. We’re Greening Oakland Homes, a new all-volunteer group that wants to help you do that. And we could use a little help from you, too.
First, here’s how we can help you. There’s more green information out there than most of us can handle. To help each other makes sense of it all, we’re setting up local fairs where you can get information about greening your homes from selected vendors, contractors, and government agents. Learn about ways to weatherize your home, use solar power, and save water. Find out how to get tax breaks and government rebates to help pay for it. No sales pressure or pitches, just information.
Here’s how you can help us help you. When we all do a little, we can make a big difference. Please take 5 minutes and fill out our survey. We want to know what green information you are most interested in, so we can be sure to provide it: here’s the survey link.
We spent under five minutes on this multiple-choice survey, and it’s a snap to take. There’s also a little room for comments. It is hard to know whether water heaters or solar energy devices matter more to you – and just have to find out, thanks!
Update: Results from the survey are pouring in, and you’re an opinionated group. We can’t wait to share everything, so stay tuned.
