Time banking and Solar Energy

Hi Mercy Drive Team,

Although we don't have a Solar Energy Work Group yet, I am looking for solutions that build community, work with faith leadership, and reduce costs. I am looking into time banking, and have invited a speaker from Florida SUN to the Florida Interfaith Climate Actions Network Assembly on March 13th and 14th.

There are legislative obstacles in Florida that may prevent us from doing this, and that is one of the things I have asked the Florida SUN speaker to fill us in on.
