What I Hope to Gain from My Involvement with the MRCSE...
Resources and ideas to connect, sustain and inspire sustainability thinking and action in my job, at the University of Minnesota (sustainability education coordinator), in my civic role on the City Council in Falcon Hts., at church (theology and the environment group), in my neighborhood organization (we have a plant exchange- that is a start!) and last but not least, at home and with my family. I'd like to find support for my mixing all of these aspects of my life togethehr approach to life/work/vocation. |

Thoughts on Sustainability
Favorite Sustainability Resources
| Minnesota Sustainable Communities Network
Increasing numbers of Minnesotans recognize that a transition to a more sustainable society is needed if we are to leave a healthy natural environment, a prosperous economy and vibrant communities for future generations. Many individuals and organizations throughout the state are working toward sustainability in areas as diverse as agriculture, waste management, energy, manufacturing, retail, urban planning, economic development, legislative policy, housing, forestry, education, land use and transportation. http://www.pca.state.mn.us/oea/sc/mnscn.cfm |
