    Lynnwood – Edmonds September 29th, 2010 Sustainable Works is very pleased to be offering energy audits and retrofits in the communities of Lynnwood and Edmonds. This is our first project in Snohomish County and promises to be our largest project to-date. SustainableWorks is a community-based non-profit created solely to help homeowners, like you, with home retrofits to reduce energy use while also creating quality jobs. Your retrofit will pay for itself. We will structure your project so that your energy savings each year will pay for the cost of the retrofit work we do. Financing options will allow you to spread your cost out over time. We coordinate everything. Doing energy retrofits has been complicated, confusing and time consuming; that’s why we coordinate everything from the audit to final inspection – including financing. We use workers trained in energy efficiency. To deliver the best service at the best price we require that our contractor’s workers have been through our approved energy efficiency training programs. They are also required to pay prevailing wages, with benefits, to all employees.

Is there the potential for cooperation between both Pacific Rim nations around this important issue, or is each nation seeking its own distinct solutions? Green Rim documents how people from universities, NGOs and industries in both countries can learn from each other as they work to reduce CO2 emissions, increase energy efficiency, create new methods to produce renewable energy and conserve natural resources. Filmed on location in China and Silicon Valley (California), Green Rim shows why clean tech energy solutions to climate change problems can only be effective if they also address the underlying social values which hinder or enable those solutions to be integrated into the everyday lives of members of each society.
