기후 변화에 대응하기 위해 어떤 특별한 상황과 이니셔티브를 수행했거나 수행할 계획이 있나요?

We are beginning educational programs focused on holistic, plant-based living.

기후 변화를 해결하기 위해 활용할 수 있는 커뮤니티의 가장 시급한 문제나 기회는 무엇인가요?

The largest problem we face is probably increased drought. We utilize highly efficient irrigation systems, as well as grey and purple water conspicuously so as to demonstrate these technologies to the public. It’s also amazing how important mulching is to retain soil moisture and reduce water use in our climate.

기후 변화에 대응하기 위해 정원의 어떤 독특한 특징을 활용할 수 있나요?

We are fortunate to be in a very temperate, coastal climate. We aim to use as little heating and cooling energy as possible, which is facilitated by our mild climate.

기후 변화에 효과적으로 대처하는 데 방해가 되는 기관이나 커뮤니티의 고유한 제약 요인에는 어떤 것이 있나요? 어떻게 하면 이러한 힘의 충돌을 타협에서 벗어나 화해와 화합으로 이끌 수 있을까요?

One of these restraining forces is living in a suburban area not well served by public transportation and where car usage is incredibly high. We are actually joining forces with other nonprofits in our neighborhood to advocate for increases in public transportation services to our facility as well as non-fossil fuel based options, such as bike shares.
