Green From the Inside Out

• Thursday, May 20, at the City College of New York

Green from the Inside Out is a  traveling presentation series for residences that focuses on energy efficiency, recycling, and rooftop possibilities. This series is geared towards individual homeowners, coop/condo board members and building managers. It is intended as an educational and motivational piece to have the decision makers implement the green measures suggested in the presentations.

ROOF APPLICATIONS. Hear about the economic and quality-of-life implications of four rooftop applications that make sense in NYC: solar thermal technology, photovoltaics, green roofs, and white roofs.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY. Lower your utlility bills by improving your building’s energy efficiency in lighting, appliances, and heating systems. Find out what incentives are available for your building.

RECYCLING. Come test your recycling knowledge and hear about new recycling laws and old misconceptions. Learn about other ways to reduce waste, recycle more, and help make NYC a little greener.

These events are free and open to the public. We invite pre-selected vendors to answer any technical questions.

Here is what building shareholders and managers who attended our previous sessions had to say about the GGU workshops:

“The length of the presentation and depth of material seemed appropriate for the event and appreciated the follow up – thanks!”

“Excellent forum and resources, thanks for providing the links on the follow up e-mail.”

“Thanks for taking the time to provide such an informative presentation at no charge.”

“[The vendors'] expertise came across as easily applicable for different people/situations.”

To host a Green From the Inside Out in your neighborhood, all we need is a donated space and we’ll do the rest. Email or call Celia Salgado at celia@solar1.org or 212-505-6050 for more information.
