Energy security green needham slides
The document discusses how the United States' oil consumption negatively impacts national security and the environment. It argues that oil empowers America's enemies, climate change acts as a threat multiplier by disrupting food, water, health and shelter, and that impacts are seen around the Strait of Hormuz and in operations in Afghanistan where fuel convoys put lives at risk. It provides examples of the USS Makin Island and F/A-18 Hornet that use more efficient energy sources and argues that developing local industries in renewable energy and efficient technologies can create jobs and address these issues.
Greening your electricity - Green Needham meeting 3/2/15
This document provides information on three options for increasing the amount of renewable energy used to power a home: buying green power, supporting renewable energy development in Massachusetts, and community solar. It explains how electricity is generated, transmitted, and distributed via the electric grid. It also outlines key factors to consider when choosing a green power supplier or community solar program, such as price, contract terms, and amount of renewable energy provided.
Ice damming
This document discusses ice dams, including what they are, what causes them, their consequences, and how to prevent them. Ice dams form when snow on a roof melts and refreezes at the edge, creating a dam. They are caused by indoor heat escaping through the roof and melting snow. This can lead to water damage in homes. Prevention methods include air sealing, insulation, and ventilation to reduce indoor heat loss. Myths like using slide sheets or raking snow are dispelled. The first step recommended is a free home energy assessment.
Green Needham - The Water is Rising: Boston's Climate Change
- The document summarizes climate change impacts and the City of Boston's climate action plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and prepare for climate impacts. It notes that 2012 was the warmest year on record in the US and July 2012 was the warmest month ever recorded. It outlines the City's goals to reduce emissions 25% by 2020 and 80% by 2050 from 2005 levels through programs targeting buildings, transportation, and municipal operations. It also discusses preparing infrastructure and the community for rising sea levels and other climate impacts through the Climate Ready Boston initiative.

Municipal energy efficiency projects save taxpayer dollars while engaging the community in sustainability efforts. A collaborative approach between the town government, local organizations, businesses, and residents can strengthen partnerships, increase understanding, and drive greater demand for energy efficiency through coordinated outreach and social norms. Challenges include managing expectations across diverse groups and maintaining effective communications, but data sharing and ensuring benefits are felt community-wide can help overcome barriers to progress.
Green needham nsl weatherization capes
This document discusses weatherization opportunities and challenges for Cape style homes. It describes Green Needham and Next Step Living weatherizing over 500 homes since 2012, saving homeowners an average of $500 per year. Key areas to focus on include the attic cap, knee wall area, and slopes of upstairs rooms. Installing foam board and spray foam in knee walls and dense packing cellulose in knee wall floors can insulate and air seal. Replacing single pane windows and attic/wall hatches also improves efficiency. Heat pumps and high-efficiency heating systems are eligible for 0% interest loans.

This document provides travel recommendations for visiting New Orleans, Louisiana, including suggestions for places to sleep, sights to see both outdoors and indoors, recommendations for lunch and dinner restaurants, places to get drinks, and a note about finances and budgeting. Key recommendations include the Astor Crowne Plaza hotel, visiting the French Quarter and Jackson Square, eating lunch at Cafe du Monde and dinner at Commander's Palace, and going to Tipitina's or Bourbon Street for drinks.

Green needham nsl weatherization colonials and ranches
This document provides information on weatherizing ranch and colonial style homes. It discusses identifying opportunities such as improving wall insulation from 1950s fiberglass batts to blown-in cellulose. Dense-packing cellulose can provide an air and thermal barrier. Split-level ranches require addressing two attic spaces and hatches. Colonials benefit from focusing on wall insulation, unfinished attic insulation and air sealing, and treating walk-up stairs. Attic ventilation and sealing chimney chases, vents and ducts are also covered. Heat pumps are an alternative to oil heating that can save up to 40% on costs.
Electronic Appliances April 2010 Meeting
Home electronics like televisions and gaming consoles use a significant amount of energy and account for about 10% of household power use. Larger screen sizes, brighter picture settings, and older technologies use more energy. Newer LED-backlit televisions are more efficient. Gaming consoles use several times more power than streaming devices even when idle. Simple tips to reduce energy use include turning devices off completely when not in use, adjusting picture brightness settings, and using smaller screen sizes.

Needham stretch code overview 09-21-11
This document provides an overview of Massachusetts' Stretch Energy Code and how it aims to help municipalities create a greener energy future. The Stretch Code is an optional appendix to the base energy code that is approximately 15-20% more stringent. It covers new construction, additions, and renovations of both residential and small commercial buildings. Compliance can be shown through either a performance path using tools like the Home Energy Rating System, or a prescriptive path with requirements for things like window efficiency and duct sealing. Training is provided to help builders and code officials understand and implement the new standards.

This document provides instructions for three topics: how to take portraits, how to use GIMP, and how to make a music video. For portraits, it recommends using the rule of thirds for composition, choosing flattering poses, and considering the background. For GIMP, it shows how to cut out and combine images by using selection tools and layers. For making a music video, it outlines a four-step process of storyboarding, preparing to film, shooting footage, and editing scenes together with music.
