There are so many challenges. We have ot figure out how to make this an unconscious part of people's lives, so they don't even have to think about it. Case in point, I can't figure the difference between all the different types of plastics. I had thought sandwich bags were recyclable but it turns out they aren't. Also, how do we inspire a sense of urgency in people so they will get motivated to do something about it? It's amazing how difficult it is to be green. There are so many challenges.
