Liz Couture 3/26/2019 7:22 AMI started with REALLY, REALLY easy challenges, things that I probably would have done anyway. Not making any apologies for this, as I seem to be spending every waking hour working on climate change related organizing. Feeling very engaged right now, but still worried about our future. -
Liz Couture 3/26/2019 6:35 AMAs lead organizer for DRAWDOWN Richmond Hill (Ontario, Canada), I felt proud to step forward as Team Captain to initiate a 2019 EcoChallenge Team. The knowledge and tools to deal with climate change are out there, and EcoChallenge uses the DRAWDOWN model of mapping and measuring to add points for behavioural changes we make towards transition to fossil-free living in our lives. Welcome team membvers!
