Homes wanted to showcase low energy living
This September, if lockdown permits, a group of homes will open to showcase ways of living greener. Some of these involve technical approaches, with heat pumps, solar panels and ventilation systems; others are low tech, reducing waste, collecting rainwater, home-made double glazing, or growing vegetables.
The event is organised by Transition Town Bridport (TTB), along with Turn Lyme Green and Green Martinstown and others.
TTB spokesman Sam Wilberforce called for new hosts who are willing to talk about their journey to sustainable living: "If you have taken steps to lower your carbon footprint, and are willing to share your experience with others, please send me an email at [email protected]. Your house does not have to be perfect or highly sophisticated, as long as you can inspire others to cut their resource use. Similarly if you know someone who might be interested I am happy to talk to them".
Because of the uncertainties of the pandemic, booking will be tentative and subject to cancellation if the hosts do not feel it is safe. The organisers hope to make some videos of each home and run a zoom conference if the event is cancelled.
