The new Kanata Energy Group (KEG) is planning an event in coordination with Tucker House and the Seventh Generation Learning Series. The presentation will follow a real-life Ottawa family as they try to cut their carbon footprint by conserving electricity and natural gas, driving less, eating more sustainably, and reducing consumption. In the course of the presentation you will find 25 no --to-low cost ways to save 25% of your green-house gas emissions.
