| Age: Adult (18-99) |
Instructor: Paulo O'Connor |
(open/max.): 25/25 |

| Sustainability is more than a buzzword. Can it be achieved? Where does one start? Join local ecologist Paulo OConnor for an interactive course on sustainable living and get some answers. In the first session explore sustainability concepts and developments, including the latest in local efforts with the why and how to get involved. By the second session complete your personal eco-audit to better understand and compare the choices you make, and you'll get tailored advice to green your space and habits within your own resources and abilities. Learn how to avoid "greenwashing", and find out 'what's next?' in terms of community resources to help you reduce your impacts. You'll leave this workshop with a clear direction of how to achieve your green living goals, a networked community for support, and will save money to boot!
