Reducing Energy Bills & New Incentives
January 22, 2023 @ 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm
Energy prices have gone up sharply within the last half year, and are impacting many households this winter. At the same time, legislators and the Biden Administration are to release $369 billion for “Energy Security and Climate Change,” part of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), offering rebates, tax incentives, and other programs to help households conserve energy and to electrify.
What is in the programs and how can you take advantage of them? Join the Environmental Team of Justice Committee following worship on Sunday, January 22, to learn about the actions we can take right away or plan to take later in 2023, when the remaining regulations are finalized.
Overall, 42% of our energy-related emissions stem from decisions we make around our kitchen tables: what kind of transportation we use, how we heat the air and water in our homes, cook our food, and dry our clothes. The only way to remove these emissions is to have our homes run on machines with plugs, not pipes. Taking these steps is important for the planet to reduce global warming and our long-term energy costs. IRA has been called the single largest climate investment in American history. Come hear how you can be a part of this change.
Join us in the Social Hall or on Zoom (Passcode: 562814). A light lunch will be offered. Email Nancy Heastings with any questions.
