Westford Conservation Trust
GreenHour
 |
The National Wildlife
Federation recommends
that parents give their kids a
"Green Hour" every day,
a time for unstructured play
and interaction with the
natural world. This can take
place in a garden, a backyard,
the park down the
street, or any place that provides
safe and accessible
green spaces where children
can learn and play. www.greenhour.org |
‘Green’ Habitat for Humanity Home
 |
The Trust has pledged $500 toward the first “Green
Home” built by Habitat for Humanity. The property, designated
by the Town of Westford for the construction
of affordable housing, is located at 18 Williams Avenue, and
will be the site of Habitat’s first
new home in Westford. According to Habitat, compared to conventional
construction, building
to certain green standards could “increase the home’s
energy efficiency by as much as 40
percent and significantly decrease annual energy bills”.
