CAN: Act Sustainably

What does it mean to act sustainably? Sustainability means operating in a way that meets our own needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. This extends not only to natural resources but to society as a whole. We will be promoting sustainable practices that will involve lifestyle choices and helping the environment in our own backyards.

We'll be touching on four key areas:

• Pollinator Pathways built to help our endangered pollinators through more sustainable landscape practices. The websites, programs, and guides give homeowners and businesses practical and easy to implement actions and help reduce the impact of climate change on pollinators.

• Water Conservation to preserve our precious resource and give it the respect it deserves. As climate change brings hotter weather and more frequent droughts, clean and abundant water can no longer be taken for granted.

• Landscaping Practices that reduce emissions, build healthy eco-systems, sequester carbon and help reduce the impact of climate change.

• Lifestyle Choices we make to reduce, reuse, recycle and repurpose.
