CL182 Engaging Residents in Sustainable Living Practices: Go Green or Get the Blues!
Do you want to learn how to engage residents in sustainable living practices? This workshop will provide a set of tools for you to engage, educate and expand the knowledge of residents on the practices of green and healthy living. Through lecture, discussion and a series of exercises we will explore how to introduce residents to energy conservation strategies, how much water they use and water conservation strategies, opportunities to create a healthy home through the use of healthy cleaning products, asthma triggers and pest control, and opportunities to reduce waste and recycle household items. Knowing that occupant behavior is the most difficult piece of this puzzle, we’ll include some additional tools to assist you with methods you can use when you return home to engage your residents and have them incorporate these practices into their daily lives.
