We recently launched our Earth Day Climate Action Guide, which is an explainer on the Inflation Reduction Act and the thousands of dollars you can get in tax credits for home energy-efficiency upgrades, buying an electric car, or installing renewable energy at home. It includes a calculator created by our partners Rewiring America and a speakers bureau with partners like New York League of Conservation Voters and CUNY Building Performance Lab. Check it out and share with your community. Homeowners associations, schools, workplaces, and other community groups are great places to spread the word about how to save thousands of dollars and take climate action at home. #ClimateAction #InflationReductionAct Check it out here: https://lnkd.in/gVYjD-AV
