One of the best ways to solve problems is for neighbors to sit down with neighbors. Let's join with or create community groups to address neighborhood challenges including reducing our individual and collective footprint.
(Google Energy Wise Neighbors for some great ideas!)
Please let us know what parts of this website are most helpful to you and suggest links and topics you would like us to add or expand on.
Again, please share your success stories and new efforts towared greater sustainability and lower individual, household or group carbon footprints.
The choices we make today, as individuals and collectively, will have critical impacts to our quality of life for the next few years, and even greater impacts as time goes on.
