SUMMARY:CANCELLED* Kitchen Table Talks: Keeping Energy Affordable at Home
DESCRIPTION:This program is cancelled – we hope to re-schedule at some point in the future. \nYou’re warmly invited to join staff from the Ecology Action Centre for Kitchen Table Talks: Keeping Energy Affordable at Home. \n\n\nThis session is meant to feel like sitting around a kitchen table – grounded in conversation around energy. We’ll talk together about energy in the home\, what affects your energy costs\, and ways to make your energy bills more affordable. We’ll also share programs and supports available through Efficiency Nova Scotia\, as well as other resources that may be helpful. \n\n\nThere will be plenty of space for conversation\, so please bring your questions\, experiences\, and curiosity. Whether you’re new to Nova Scotia\, renting\, or settling into your first home\, this space is for you\, but everyone is welcome. \nPull up a chair\, and let’s talk about energy together. \n\n\nThis is a free event. Register in space below.
