Team Houston GBRC

Well, it was fun and instructive in many ways!

Nature gives us what we need...we in turn need to take care of our Earth!   I love and appreciate the incredible value of nature, especially trees and their benefits:  reducing heat island effect, filtering our air, providing habitat, reducing stormwater runoff, and their sheer beauty. The most interesting fact I learned is the effectiveness...

completed all the set out to do

Good luck with remainder of year: meatless, zero waste, local... and reducing energy impact. We can do it!

Mary, For some reason couldn't respond to your post directly so will say here: try fresh garden tomatoes. World of difference in my opinion. But yes, we all have that least liked veggie. Artichoke would be mine. 

What have I learned? Yes, this game is a good engagement tool. Fun to see what other teams in other places are doing. Excellent idea to have learning opportunities baked into the site. And...Every action counts!

Thanks, team! We've done such a great job for s small group. Steve, thanks for being a fantastic lead-by-example captain. I'm sorry to miss your Zero Waste event tonight but so happy to have your leadership for the City of Houston's Green Building Resource Center!

Thanks everyone.  This was great.

90% of our meetings are phone calls or conference calls.  Rarely to we require travel.  On any given project, we may have 10% of our meetings in person.  

I have a meatless house.  Still trying to give up meat when I am out.  Sometimes it's just easier to order what sounds good, but, I do try to stay conscious.  I don't eat out all that much these days.
