"Energy Resource Guide for Virginia"

Virginia’s consumers now have an online resource the will help them find the most reliable information about energy. A new Web-based project from Virginia Cooperative Extension called the Energy Resource Guide for Virginia connects online visitors with valuable information on energy efficient homes, transportation, cost-saving energy management for businesses, and renewable energy.
   "We at Virginia Cooperative Extension are very proud to provide this important resource at a time when domestic energy production and conservation are priorities for everyone," said Mark McCann, director of Virginia Cooperative Extension. "This energy resource guide provides valuable and timely information for consumers, farmers, and youth of the commonwealth."
