I have recently started a Environmental Sub-Committee at my college and am excited to find your campaign because I have parked my Jeep Grand Cherokee and purchased a city transit bus pass. I love taking the bus five days a week and walk to work on the weekends. I am taking personal responsibility for my impact on the earth and I want to become carbon neutral. Currently I am saving up for solar panels and want my school to run off of renewable energy sources. I live in Windsor, ON. Canada and we endure snow during the winter, however, I still promote leaving your car behind; and I want to win a free bike if I don't bring my car to St. Clair College.
