What is the Green Exchange?

It is a place for residents of Cooper-Young and Evergreen to trade energy-saving goods and services.

For example, if you have extra insulation laying around, you can post that on the exchange. If someone needs insulation and sees that you have extra, they can offer to trade you the caulk they have left over for your insulation.

You can also use this page to exchange services. If you need someone to help install new windows in your home, you post that information. Someone can then offer to trade you an afternoon helping you install your windows for your help caulking their home in exchange.

Basically, this exchange is what you make of it. We hope you use it frequently to make your energy-saving endeavors more cost and time efficient for you.

My name is Sally Smith, and I have 3 tubes of caulk that I'd like to trade for a little help installing some insulation. Please contact me at ssmith@fakeemail.com if you'd like to trade!
