City of Lakewood Sustainable Neighborhoods Program (with Jonathan Wachtel)
Manage episode 315094550 series 3292984
When city planner Jonathan Wachtel got tired of being able to do no more to thank residents for making good suggestions about how to achieve sustainability goals, he decided to find a way he could help them to implement their own ideas. Since the program launched in 2012, more than 20,000 residents have participated in more than 500 events, workshops, and projects, which have increased the city's tree canopy coverage, reduced waste, conserved water, and improved energy efficiency.
