Sean Welch

I will engage with the content available on the Emerson Environmental Sustainability Hub by doing one of the following: watch a webinar recording, read a blogpost, read one of the newsletters.

I will participate in Earth Week by attending at least one of the global Emerson Earth Day Live Panel discussions during Earth Week on 19th and 20th April, listening to the special Planet in Focus podcast episode, or completing an EcoChallenge action.

I will complete the first module of the Emerson Environmental Sustainability training program available on the Global Learning Center.

I will calculate the carbon emissions associated with my household and consider how lifestyle changes could reduce the carbon footprint and impacts on the environment.

I will use the communication methods I read about to practice effective, compassionate, and nonviolent communication with someone I interact with regularly (i.e., my roommate, parents, co-worker, partner, classmates, or children).

I will save up to 6 gallons (23 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers. Tip: Use a timer to practice or count to 60 a few times.

I will spend 30 minutes learning about where my energy comes from.

I will enjoy 1 meatless meal(s) and/or 0 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

Of nearly 44 million U.S. renter households in 2019, more than 45% paid rent equal to 30% or more of their gross household income. I will spend 30 minutes learning about a renters bill of rights and affordable housing.

During the day, I will schedule 1 conversations per day to chat with my friends about my actions and learning during Earth Month.

I will practice actively listening to a friend, family member, co-worker, peer, or someone who has a different experience/identity for 30 conversations per day.

Emerson Twin Cities will recruit Green Team and other employees to spend time outdoors safely removing trash and debris from our Emerson properties.

I will sign up for my utility company's clean/renewable energy option.

Emerson Twin Cities is hosting a local webinar to explain how to cut your transportation footprint; specifically with your commuting choices. Attend on Tuesday Apr 26, and complete this action! See the posters in your area for how to attend.
