Behaving Sustainably: Enabling You to Do Your Part. A discussion and social time will follow.
Climate change patterns such as more intense and frequent heat waves and storms can pose threat to Wisconsin’s agriculture, ecosystem, and population health. Changing our habits and behaving more sustainably can mitigate the impact of climate change. But kicking off old habits is hard to do, especially when we cannot see the results immediately. What strategies can we use to facilitate behavior change in ourselves and others? Which behavior changes have the greatest impact?
Kathy Kuntz, Executive Director of the Wisconsin Climate Change Action Initiative (WCCAI), will share their findings and recommendations on those questions. WCCAI was created by Gov. Doyle’s Task Force on Global Warming to make Wisconsin a national leader in achieving voluntary greenhouse gas emissions reductions, and to help individuals, communities and businesses change their behaviors to mitigate climate change. Kathy Kuntz is the former Director of Energy Programs at WECC (Wisconsin Energy Conservation Corporation) and brings more than 15 years of experience in the world of energy education, energy efficiency, and energy communications. The forum is free and open to the public.
