By taking BLUER's ENERGY STAR pledge, you can make small changes in your home that can add up to big energy savings for the Borough.
If every American household took part in the pledge, we would save more than 110 billion kilowatt hours of electricity, more than $18 billion in annual energy costs, and prevent greenhouse gases equivalent to the emissions of more than 18 million cars. Take the pledge now! Just click here
On Wed January 18, BLUER presented New Street Catering of West Chester University the BLUER Business Award for their efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and operate an increasingly sustainable food service for the University and the community.

Nov, 2011: BLUER has helped develop a questionaire to both educate the permit applicant about Green Building measures (and how these can save money over time) and to inform the Borough's Department of Building, Housing and Codes Enforcement and the BLUER Committee about the Project’s specific green initiatives. The latest version of this questionaire can be found here.
BLUER (led by Dianne) has prepared a position paper analyising the various PA state legislation that will likely be voted on this fall. You can read the full report here.
We also recommend a very informative lecture by Professor Ingraffea of Cornell U about the Myths and Realities of gas drilling in PA. Watch it on YouTube here, or ask a BLUER member for a copy of the DVD. It's about 2 hours.
