9: Sustainability with Jonathan Zaidman (1 to 1 Movement)

December 09, 2015

Thereâs no denying that together we all need to start taking measures toward sustainability and conservation. It can be a little overwhelming at times. What can one person do about the Great Pacific Garbage Patch? How can I equate my energy use to polar bears thousands of miles away?

 

Itâs hard to. Which is why 1 to 1 Movement is rebranding sustainability.

 

Rather than taking a large-scale global approach, Jonathan Zaidman is leading his team to drive the impact home. They are connecting with individuals, primarily students, to teach them easy ways to address all 5 of the core issues in their lives.

 

 

 

 

 
âRather than making people feel like they are apart of the problem, make them feel like they are apart of the solution.â
 

The 5 Core Environmental Issues:

Food
Water
Waste
Energy
Transportation

 

Ways to Reduce Your Footprint

Keep lights off and energy use down;
Bike to work;
Grow your own food;
Shop at thrift stores.

 
âDo what works for you. Find a way within your life, your time and your resources that you have to do things that make a difference in your life.â
