    The eco challenge has been a great opportunity to reflect on my own habits and start conversations with others around what has worked for them

    This weekend I brought my 3 kids, ages 2, 4, and 6, to an EarthDay cleanup organized by Buffalo Niagara Waterkeepers. I was reflecting that getting them thinking about sustainability and establishing norms to reduce waste is one of the biggest investments I can make.

    I want to find more ways to incorporate sustainability into my daily life and sometimes a challenge like this is a great way to try something new and form a lifelong habit. This morning I biked to the bus stop and caught the express bus downtown.
