This focus is on our sources of energy, our use of energy, waste produced from energy, and any issue that affects the energy we utilize or have available to us in WELL’s region of interest. In February 2005 the Energy Project Team completed a preliminary inventory of the Willits Community's energy usage. This file is available in two versions. Willits Area Energy Inventory -- PDF. Willits Area Energy Inventory -- Excel file (xls)
Further reports and info forthcoming.
