Teton County Library in Jackson presents "Spring into Solar: Energy Options," on Monday, April 23, 7-8:30 p.m. in the Ordway Auditorium, Jackson, Wyo.
Presented in collaboration with the Murie Center, Andy Tyson, practitioner, designer and installer of solar electric systems, will offer advice for homeowners considering adding solar power to defray the costs of their home's energy needs. The presentation includes a case study of a Jackson Hole resident who has converted to solar energy, and the costs involved. Tyson worked as an international mountain guide for 16 years before launching Creative Energies, based in Lander, Wyo., and Victor, Idaho. He designs, sells and installs solar electric, wind-electric and geothermal heat pump systems.
The library will feature a book display, "Going Green for the Planet," and the debut of new recycling bins. The library's Youth Services staff has invited elementary school students to write earth-oriented poems in tribute to both Earth Day and National Poetry Month. The poems are on display.
