Kicking Gas is set to host three educational sessions in March aimed at informing residents about heat pumps, a cleaner alternative to traditional fossil-fueled heating systems. The first session will take place in-person at Lynnwood Library on March 17, followed by two virtual meetings later in the month. These sessions provide attendees with valuable information on transitioning to electric heating and cooling systems, as well as opportunities to connect with vetted contractors in their area. Additionally, participants can learn about available subsidies to help offset costs associated with the transition. The initiative also addresses growing concerns regarding indoor air pollution and rising energy costs, making it highly relevant for the community.

Attendees will also explore the benefits of induction stove cooking and related financial incentives. Kicking Gas aims to foster a shift towards sustainable energy solutions, benefiting both the environment and local residents. Engaging with community members in this manner highlights the importance of informed energy decisions and promotes a healthier living environment.
