Katherine Argo 3/23/2018 7:40 AMI am so excited for this challenge and opportunity to learn more about sustainability in my area and how I can make a difference even if it is one thing. The first eco challenge I participated in last year really kick started my own journey into sustainability that I talk about it with my coworkers and am recognized for having this passion. I hope to learn more about what sustainability looks like in my workplace (inpatient hospital nursing), and what changes I can make.
