It’s Easy Being Green

It’s Easy Being Green
By State Representative Bill Aman

Many of us have heard about government programs like “Cash for Clunkers” or rebates being offered for increasingly energy efficient homes, but did you know the State of Connecticut is offering assistance or rewards for being green?

This month, I’ll be hosting Sally McCartin of the Department of Public Utility Control (DPUC) at the regularly scheduled Senior Picnic at the South Windsor Enes Community Senior Center on Thursday, July 22, from 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM. 

We will have a display with information where you can learn about energy efficiency programs, rebates, government assistance, electric car initiatives, renewable energy, fuel assistance and many other helpful initiatives available right here in Connecticut. Each visitor to the DPUC booth will have a chance to ask questions and receive a small free gift to take home. There’s much to learn, but being green isn’t rocket science.

Right here in Connecticut, we have our very own programs to encourage conservation and energy efficiency. The programs range from heating assistance, rebate programs, weatherization initiatives, fuel assistance, to free educational information. In addition to the government programs, there are simple every-day tricks and do-it-yourself projects you can do to lower energy costs and consumption. Did you know a do-it-yourself project could even be tax deductible?
