CHEnergy Fest 2009
This event was designed to help residents take actions that will conserve energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Participants enjoyed free food and live music, and learned how to save money and reduce energy consumption at home. Residents were able to sign up for a free street tree, free curb-side recycling, a low-cost home energy audit, and Xcel’s Windsource program, which allows residents to purchase wind energy for their homes. Free home energy audits, weatherization and energy upgrades were available to some households, depending on income. Significant rebates were available to everyone.
The event coincided with the 350.org International Day of Climate Action. 350 refers to 350 parts per million (ppm) of greenhouse gasses in the Earth's atmosphere. Scientists say that 350 is the maximum safe level to prevent climate change disasters. Human impacts have already raised levels to over 390 ppm. The City of Denver has a Climate Action Agenda with a goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 10 percent by 2012. We can do our part for Denver to help reach that goal, plus improve the quality of life for everyone.
CHEnergy Fest sponsors included Greenprint Denver, Capitol Hill United Neighborhoods (CHUN) and Capitol Hill United Ministries (CHUM).
