Sustainable Lafayette was started with the idea
that residents of Lafayette can learn from each
other about how to live more sustainably. One
family may be experienced at composting while
another has learned the latest about solar panels
and another has figured out a clever solution for
commuting to work.
An effective way to share these experiences
is through success stories, which
share a story about adopting a sustainable
practice, and all the details about how to do it.
The intent is for these stories to be informative
and inspiring for others in the community. Read the success
stories already shared by your neighbors.
Join the Sustainable Lafayette Network and begin receiving a monthly newsletter with tips and success stories from around town. If you've already taken some steps to make your home more green, please consider sharing your story so other residents can learn and be inspired by what you've done.
It is highly recommended to periodically
complete a carbon footprint calculator to determine
your environmental impact and the best
opportunities for reducing it. There is a great
one, designed just for California, at coolcalifornia.org.
