Join us as we talk to Lisa about her background in engineering, her work as a life coach, and her ambition and motivation to reduce her carbon footprint by two-thirds! Lisa explains to us how small changes can have a big impact, and how easy it can be to reduce your carbon footprint in half - and save big bucks while doing so! Lisa is living proof that "every little bit helps." She also has participated in various State and National organizations like Citizen's Climate Lobby and Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS), and is a founding member of the Idaho CleanTech Alliance (link below) and the Idaho Business for the Outdoors.
