Climate Change Awareness & Action is taking part in the 25th Annual National Solar tour from Sept. 28 to Oct 4. The National Solar Tour is the largest grassroots renewable energy event in the nation.

George Lorefice of Manlius, Peter Wirth of Fayetteville and Yvonne Chu of Syracuse will describe how they are saving money, contributing to the transition away from fossil fuels and addressing climate change.

The tour will highlight residential and community solar and explain residential users can incorporate solar PV with technologies, such as highly efficient electric heat pumps, so you not only save money and produce your own electricity, but also reduce your natural gas consumption and improve air quality in your home.

This “online, virtual tour” will go live Sept. 28 and run through Oct. 4. An e-mail address is provided for each of the tours for anyone who has questions for the homeowners.

Participants will also hear from national leaders in the solar and electric vehicle fields, solar businesses, solar schools, and from community organizations advocating for solar and energy equity.

The tour is free and open to the public. To RSVP, visit www.nationalsolartour.org/rsvp2020 to find the “Central New York Solar tour” on an interactive map and the programming calendar. Climate Change Awareness and Action, www.climatechange-action.com is a local organization of 2,000 individuals concerned about climate change.
