Virginia Mason Communications Climateers

Since today is the last day of Virginia Mason participating in this year's Drawdown EcoChallenge, I just wanted to thank all the members of my departmental team, the Communications Climateers. Excellent job! Way to help make a difference for the health of Mother Earth and our grandchildren's grandchildren. 

Since Monday is the last day of our participation in the Drawdown EcoChallenge, I encourage my teammates to finish strong since we are in the home stretch of our participation. Do it for Mother Earth and future generations! 

My parents grew up on farmland in Tennessee.  Sadly, that land is now urban residential land.  I support the work of American Farmland Trust to help preserve much needed, valuable farmland. 

Efforts continue to go well. Yesterday, I invited our freelance graphic designer, Dean Driskell, to Join Virginia Mason Communications Climateers. Go (green) team!

We are halfway through the Drawdown EcoChallenge and I am feeling really good about the progress that my team - Virginia Mason Communications Climateers - and I are making. Not only are these the right things to do, but our grandchildren's grandchildren will thank us. GO, Mother Earth!

I planted a tree this weekend, which felt good and will likely encourage me to plant more in the near future.
