Because of climate change and the growing concern of
our lessening resources of oil and gas, it is more important now than ever that
we become more sustainable. There are a lot of ways to be more sustainable. You
can start simple, by eating more local foods that require much less gas emissions
to get to our table. You can make small changes around your home like changing your
light bulbs and using power strips for your plug in devices to help with
phantom energy issues. You can go a little bit bigger and get green energy
appliances to save you money on washing your dishes or doing a load of laundry.
Or you can go big and change your insulation in your house to save you big
bucks on your energy bills. Replacing windows and installing solar panels will
also save you money in the long run and help you be more sustainable. ORE and
LFF are two resources that the Gunnison valley has to be more sustainable. These
two projects can green your home and allow your food to be more local. Small changes
can really make a difference! Go Green Today!
