Sustainability - Live It
Led by Stan (Carbonrally)
Become more substainable
This team started as a group of friends, neighbors and colleagues, but has grown to include an extended family of teammates.
While we are the ones responsible for this planet, let us use the precious resources earth has provided to prepare for a good tomorrow for ourselves and future generations. Let’s find ways to be more sustainable in order to ensure the best possible future outcomes.
Discuss Sustainability - Live It:
Hey folks, summer is over, time to starting getting back to work. Considering take a new challenge or two.
And share your thoughts with the team in the comments area on the team page (http://www.carbonrally.com/teams/4).
>We had a good summer. Had some fun, but mostly stayed local. Fixed up the house and traded-in for a Prius which we love. I am getting the hang of riding my bike for my transportation.
Toughest challenges for me: Low Rider and Top Off Your Tires. I have trouble keep the speed down on the highway. Or at least I was. Now that we have a Prius, I am having this little competition with myself to get the gas mileage as high as possible and that is driving to go a bit slower (seems the optimal MPG is somewhere in the 50s or low 60s).
What is your toughest challenge. I am wondering if anyone can pull off the Green Ham & Cheese challenge for themselves or their kids.
Hi folks – Check out the the new challenge to user a reusable lunch container (no disposable stuff.) Helen and some other folks were taking about ways to cut waste in lunch and came up with a solution called Laptop Lunches. I posted more information about it in the challenge comments here: http://www.carbonrally.com/challenges/24#posts
Ok, so back to the name thing… I have decided thinking about sustainability is not enough… we need to live it! That is what I meant all along, but let’s be explicit about it!!
So it turns out people like our current name, so I am happy to say we remain the Think Sustainability team.
Team – I’ve just posted a suggested challenge (http://carbonrally.com/suggestions/77), but it needs some more work to be fully sketched out. Please review it and add your comments and suggestions. Thanks! Chris
So, I just got a note from one of our team members that he likes the current name… still I am thinking it a bit too boring/serious, but maybe serious is not such a bad thing?
Alright, we need a better name for this great team of ours.
How about the Greenheads?
Other ideas?

It only took two emails (one from Stan and one from Eric) to get me to sign up… thanks for the gentle prodding and the offer to join Think Sustainability team!
