West Roxbury Saves Energy will be holding a free community event describing smart ways to reduce your household energy usage at West on Centre Restaurant on Monday, March 7 at 7:30 pm.

Get energy-saving tips and information on how you can save money by lowering your household carbon emissions, a root cause of climate change.

Learn how to calculate your household’s carbon footprint and about joining a family-based “Low-Carbon Diet” group in your neighborhood. 

Free CFLs donated by NSTAR will be given out while they last. Prizes will also be awarded during the initial "Green Quiz" portion of the evening. Boston City Councilor Matt O'Malley, chairman of the Council's Committee on the Environment and Health, and State Rep. Ed Coppinger are scheduled to attend.

West on Centre is generously hosting this event and will provide free light snacks. Beverages may be purchased. For details and more information, visit WestRoxburySavesEnergy.org.
