I had the opportunity to participate in the 2009 Peoria Chamber of Commerce Community Leadership School this past spring, and our team project was on sustainability and "going green'.
With my work on the Central Illinois Renewable Energy Expo, this was a great fit, and our team attacked the project with a passion. One of our team members actually purchased electricity for his employer from an alternative energy source(wind) and many others found great ideas and best practices from around the state and throughout the country.
After presenting to the Mayor's Commission on Sustainability, we produced a directory of green resources, recycling efforts, funding opportunities and much more. It is available by contacting us at cireexpo@gmail.com.
Please visit our CIREE website at www.ciree.net and find out more about sustainability and the Central Illinois Renewable Energy Expo 2010!
