WEKU Covers KSEC's Renewable Energy Spotlight

Excerpt from "Renewable Energy, Focus of Ky Student Environmental Event":

The Kentucky Student Environmental Coalition is sponsoring a series of events to educate young Appalachians about opportunities in media, energy, food and creative sectors.  

Coalition Organizer Cara Cooper says it’s not solely a reaction to the long-standing coal industry’s presence in the region,  “Regardless of what the coal industry looks like in the next couple of years in terms of job creation or job loss, I think there’s still interest from young Kentuckians in different industries coming on board and to really diversify our economy so we’re not putting all of eggs into one basket."

Saturday’s program will include a presentation about the energy efficiencies implemented in Benham in Harlan County.
