Description: NIH Work Life Seminar

Join us for this informative seminar to learn ways for making your home environmentally friendly. With global warming occurring at an alarming rate, the decrease of fish populations in local streams, and major ecological habitats such as the Chesapeake Bay area experiencing increasing environmental damage, it is more important than ever to understand the consequences of our daily use of resources. Did you know that your home might cause the emission of more than twice as much carbon dioxide as the average car? Even small changes can have a big impact on reducing energy usage, and 2009 is a great time to start. Attend this seminar to learn tips for greening your light bulbs to your landscaping. Greening your home can also add more “green” to your wallet!
