TOOLKITS FOR TAKING ACTION
|
Here at Sustainable America, we’ve spent 2019 focusing on the impact community actions can
have on sustainability. To help make that happen, we released a series of toolkits to give
individuals like you ideas for projects that can be done in your community.
Our latest toolkit is a great starting point. In Building Sustainability
Together: A Community Toolkit for Change, you’ll find dozens of ideas focused on food, the
environment, and fuel. You can use it as a jumping-off point to get started in community
composting, host a native plant swap, or make your streets safer for biking.
We also launched an anti-idling toolkits, which pulls together some of the best
ideas, advice, and printable resources from the I Turn It Off campaign. And for the food waste
fighters, we launched a companion toolkit
for the I Value Food: Too Good to Waste Challenge, which provides everything you need to
facilitate a food waste reduction challenge with a group. You can find all the toolkits
here. Look for more toolkits coming in 2020.
Thank you for being part of our community this year. These are challenging times for our
environment and our world. Now
more than ever we need to come together to face the future together.
Happy Holidays,
Sustainable America

A YEAR OF COMMUNITY BUILDING
|
We started our year of community focus by surveying our own community and learned about some
of the ways readers are
taking action. You’re starting workplace composting programs, planting backyard gardens, talking
to friends and family
about sustainability issues, and more. You can read about some of these community changemakers on
our
blog.
On Instagram, where our digital community has grown, partnerships with leaders and doers like
Rob Greenfield and Ends &
Stems have brought new members into our community. Follow us there for
daily doses of sustainability tips, news and inspiration.
As we look ahead to 2020, we want to continue our focus on building our community. In the
coming months, we’ll share new
tools and resources to take action and tell more stories of people and communities who are
rallying to create change. If
you or someone you know has a story to share, feel free to reach out to us on our
website or by tagging us
on Instagram or Facebook.
