William and Mary college, in Williiamsburg Virginia, invited Adam Werbach to speak as part of their DOT Kickoff. The school has taken Sustainability personally and engaged faculty and students to pick a DOT. Adam Werbach and the audience were equally inspired by the actions already taken (7oo+ DOTS on Campus) and by the journey ahead. Adam challenged the school to lead the way to a billion.

William and Mary is the first university to launch DOT on Campus

The folks at Saatchi X in Arkansas understand that a little sun shine, a clothesline and a little patience can save money and reduce ones climate footprint.

Am I a leader or a follower? In this case I’m both. Recently, I was
inspired by one of my co-workers when I heard she installed a
clothesline. Well, actually I laughed at first, but when I saw my
electric bill for July, I thought back to my co-worker’s comment about
the savings her family realized by using a clothesline. With a family
of six, our dryer is constantly in use and our electric bill made that
very apparent. So, following in the footsteps of my eco-friendly and
financially-savvy co-worker, I proudly installed the Patterson Family
clothesline. As of two weeks ago, our family now hangs all of our
laundry on the clothesline. Our 16-year old, Mason, has gladly accepted
responsibility for hanging the clothes, while the responsibility of
taking the clothes down and folding rotates among the rest of the
family. Our family was the first in our Bentonville neighborhood to
install a clothesline, but as of last night, I think I may be leading a
movement - at least in our neighborhood. I caught a glance of our
neighbor’s husband installing their backyard clothesline. Can’t wait to
see next month’s electric bill!

An efficient fan powered drying rack that allows me to handwash instead
of drycleaning (which I hardly ever do now.). Energy saving and no
chemicals!

I hang dry clothes, because it was always done that way until the last
century. Maybe it’s a little “Theodore Kaczynski” like, because of the
hate for technology where it’s not needed.
