TALKS ON LIGHT, HEAT AND SEA LETTUCE!
This Thursday 20th May Sustainable Clonakilty will hold it’s monthly open public information meeting, starting at 8pm at O' Donovan's Hotel. This should prove to be a very interesting meeting for householders, as the group has invited three local speakers, to talk about a different aspect of sustainability.
Consultant Robbie Lambert will be speaking on the best lighting for home and industrial use that is environmentally-friendly, but also economic for the person paying the bills! Paddy Rose of local company, “Progressive Solar” will give a talk on heating with the help of the sun, and thirdly, students from Sacred Heart Secondary School will give a presentation on the sea lettuce briquettes they have produced which has won them national recognition.
As usual, the monthly meetings of Sustainable Clonakilty are open to all who are interested to attend.
In the meantime, the group is appealing to people to please complete and return (via email) the survey about your energy usage in the home. Recently, everyone on their e-mail database was asked to fill up the form and email it back. The information from this survey will be important going forward as the group lays plans for the Clonakilty district to become energy-neutral by 2020.
