International Women’s Club Meeting Report

IWC Cancun meeting – October 4, 9:30am Catorce

“Sound Steps for Sustainability”

What an invigorating meeting! Thank you for inviting me to speak about a subject I feel passionate about. I am so excited by everyone’s interest and ideas, and I look forward to hearing from each and every one of you so we can follow up on the topics we raised, including –

~avoiding plastic (which is toxic and never really biodegrades), such as through reusable bags for grocery stores, and biodegradable plastics of all kinds including diapers

~nature walks, beach cleanups, methods to get hotels, locals, tourists, and especially kids, involved in protecting this precious environment

Even if you missed the meeting, just let me know you’d like to be involved and I’ll help you jump on in. 🙂

Here’s a link for the handout I passed around:  iwc-handout-october-meeting

The videos of the six pack rings and park rules will be up very soon. The videos and other materials I have on my site are free, just be sure to let me know if you are going to use them so that I can keep track of distribution.

*Make sure to come to the November meeting, a representative of Sian Ka’an will come to talk about recycling!*

Thank you IWC! Together we can make Cancun a sustainability success story!!!
