St Michael & All Angels Green Team
St Michael’s Green Team is moving along on the project to calculate the present day combined carbon footprint of the Church, Larson Hall, and St. Veronica’s Hall. The Commission On the Environment of The Episcopal Diocese Of Northern California has made the Team aware of an Energy Efficiency Expert who would survey our buildings to create a detailed energy efficiency assessment report The information in the report from the assessment will help the Team develop an action plan to become more energy efficient. The great news is that St. Michael's in on the list to get an energy assessment in August with the support of the diocese.
