Climate Stewards: Building Community and Saving Money with WindowDressers. There are 557,000 homes in Maine and more than 90 percent of them need weatherization. WindowDressers responds to this challenge by bringing volunteers together to make affordable window inserts that keep homes warmer, reduce heating costs, and cut carbon emissions. Dianne Smith, a community activist and leader for the WindowDressers “Community Builds” in Belfast and Searsport, will outline the process of fabricating inserts and explain how to establish a WindowDressers build in the community. Her talk is part of the Wells Reserve’s Ted Exford Climate Stewards lecture series, made possible by Dave & Loretta (Exford) Hoglund. $5 suggested donation. For more information, contact 646-1555 or visit wellsreserve.org.
