"There are many quick and easy tips, and long-term investments, that families can utilize to save money in 2012."

Information on lowering your electricity and heating bills will be presented by Con Edison, New York State Energy Research & Development Authority (NYSERDA), local contractors and Westchester-based organizations. There will also be tips for the whole family on saving gas, lowering waste, gardening, hiking and biking.

There is a chance for kids to use a pedal-a-watt bicycle which will demonstrate just how much energy it takes to brighten a lightbulb.
