Energy expert urges conservation

The days of dancing in oil around exploding derricks is over, and it’s past due time to think about conserving crude consumption, said Scott Waterman. Waterman, who works as the State Energy Programs Manager for Alaska Housing Finance Corporation, is looking to find ways to build more energy-efficient homes as he speaks around the state, taking on a number of education programs.
“I got interested in energy efficiency when I first looked into the overall energy picture, and what I found really disturbed me,” Waterman said.
