Overview
Welcome to the fourth and final week of the Staff Challenge! This week focuses on “Continuing the Conversation”. We encourage people to continue talking about actions we can take to improve sustainability and address climate change. We want staff to talk to your coworkers, friends, and family (and us!) about what we can do better, and give your overall input on the Staff Challenge itself. This week you can get credit for submitting any ideas, conversations, or actions you’ve taken right in the staff challenge log.
Did you know:
Two in three Americans are moderately or very interested in global warming, yet 70% do not discuss the issue with friends and family due to a “spiral of silence”.
Why is this important?
Having conversations about climate change and solutions is equally as important as taking sustainable actions. Every individual has a sphere of influence through their colleagues, friends, family, and community. People often think others aren’t as concerned about climate change as they are, making them hesitant to start a conversation. By engaging in discussions with others about sustainability, you help increase visibility of these issues and broaden your impact.
