Dan Ruben, Chairman of the Board for Green Newton, taught Green Newton’s Green Lifestyles course in the spring. In the 3 part course, participants learn how to reduce their use of energy (at home and in transportation), water, waste and toxins, and be a more eco-friendly consumer. They also discover new strategies for cutting their energy and water bills.  Since many were unable to participate in the courses, we are making Dan’s presentations available in this post.
