YOUR WELLNESS by Kristin Smith
Our planet, our wellness Tips from eco experts
WELLNESS IS A collective endeavor that includes the state of our own mind, body and spirit and that of the planet. In contemplating sustainable, green initiatives, I reached out to local experts passionate about improving the health of our community. I posed the following two questions: › What is one practical thing you would share someone who supports a sustainable lifestyle? › What practices would you like to see Decatur incorporate in the next 10 years? Here’s what I learned. Greg Coleson, Chief Technology Officer at 412technology.com I would have a conversation about what they are currently doing to combat climate change, then make suggestions related to that. The single largest thing they can currently do is get involved in the Decatur Strategic Planning process going on now and advocate for the city to focus on combatting climate change. Have all the residents using some renewable energy source for all their electricity, heating and transportation. Again, the Strategic Planning process is going on right now and it will set the direction for the city for the next 10 years. Encourage everyone to sign up and participate. More at decatur2030.com.
