Alliance to Save Energy's EE Global Public Day - an "Energy-Efficiency World's Fair"
Have fun, learn to reduce your energy bills, and improve the environment!

The Alliance to Save Energy cordially extends a special invitation to friends of Green Building Initiative™ to attend EE Global Public Day - an "Energy-Efficiency World's Fair." EE Global Public Day is being held on Sunday, November 11th, from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm at the Washington, DC Convention Center (801 Mount Vernon Pl, NW). This fun day will showcase ways to save money and the environment through energy efficiency.

EE Global Public Day will be a fun, family event with entertainment from the Globe 94.7, exciting raffle drawings for energy-saving products, the chance to meet the Maytag Repair Man, and a "real, live" Energy Hog! More than 65 confirmed exhibitors from around the world will be displaying the latest energy-efficiency technologies including state-of-the art home appliances, LED holiday lights and vehicles that get more than 100 miles-per-gallon. Raffle prizes include a Whirlpool Cabrio Washer and Dryer laundry pair, an MP3 player, an ENERGY STAR® DVD player, a free home energy audit, and much more. There will also be great free giveaways, such as a compact fluorescent light bulb to people who sign the ENERGY STAR pledge (one per family, while supplies last).

The event also will serve as a "how-to guide on energy-efficiency" with experts on hand to analyze home energy bills and educational seminars on topics such as:

• How to Reduce Your Energy Bills
• DC's Plan to Reduce its Carbon Footprint
• What to Look for When Buying a New vs. Old Home
• Hybrid Vehicles and Efficient Driving
• Becoming a Carbon Conscious Consumer
• The Energy Hog Show for Kids!

The Alliance to Save Energy will open the Exhibition floor to the general public for an admission price of $10 per person (children under 12 are admitted free). The DC Convention Center is located adjacent to the Mt. Vernon Square Metro stop on the Yellow and Green Lines. Friends of Green Building Initiative can use the attached coupon to get 50% off the entry fee.
