Sustainable Connections
from The ESP: Student Caught Stories · host EICStoryProjects
This episode is in collaboration with WWU students: Genna Tobin, Emma Cline, Alex Hines, and Sky McCaslandSustainable Connections, a nonprofit that has been active in the Bellingham area for nearly a quarter of a century and strives to do exactly what their name suggests; connect the community through sustainability. The nonprofit as a whole touches on nearly every aspect of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, but our team chose to focus on two of their specific programs, Think Local First and Towards Zero Waste. Their Think Local First addresses the Sustainable Cities and Communities SDG, working to encourage the community to fund the local economy and produce sustainable job opportunities within Bellingham. Our team sat down with Molly Bressers, the program manager of Think Local First to discuss her experiences and how she works within Sustainable Connections to promote local Bellingham businesses.
