Students help Bangor residents save heating dollars, WABI reports
WABI (Channel 5) was at the Unitarian Universalist Church in Bangor Saturday to watch University of Maine economics undergraduates and graduate students build energy-efficient window inserts for area residents. The service learning project, a partnership with the Rockland-based nonprofit Window Dressers, was organized by assistant professor of economics Sharon Klein. “It can seem complicated and intimidating to get involved in something like this but really it is pretty simple,” Klein told WABI. “It’s just people getting together to do something good for the environment, for people.”
