WUWM's environmental reporter Susan Bence takes us inside Power Down Week, an effort in Riverwest to use as little energy as possible. WUWM environmental reporter Susan Bence produced our feature on Power Down Week, which ended Sunday night with a quintessential Milwaukee tradition – a block party and, as you might expect, prizes for the people who managed to power down most. You can also see a slide show of photos and hear Susan’s news story about Power Down week.
