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?
