How have you contributed to climate action in your community through advocacy, past work, advisory committees, volunteer work, and/or reducing your personal carbon footprint?
I helped to bring in the circular economy work to the city of Richmond after attending the Zero Waste conference years back. Our current Circular Economy strategy is something we are all proud of.
