Happy Earth Day to our District!

For those who celebrate, Earth Day is a time to reflect on the beauty of our world, spend time in nature, and volunteer to improve our neighborhoods, parks, and greenspaces. Locally, our very own 2030 District has reasons to celebrate: our buildings have reported decreases in transportation emissions, water usage, and energy consumption. We still have a long way to go, but we can go together using our network to continue learning, developing, and ideating new ways to make our District more cost-efficient and green-forward.

This Earth Day, I encourage you to reflect on how far we have come, connect with each other to forge ahead, and take a walk outside in one of our many beautiful greenspaces.
