Groups that have chosen to take on water conservation and management projects during the Year of Water will share their plans, ask questions of experts, and get more ideas and help from community members about how to implement their good deeds for Monona. This fall/winter recruitment effort of The Natural Step Monona and the UW Nelson Institute Capstone Class was designed to expand the number of water improvement projects like ripples on a pond—outward to more and more groups.
What can your group do? What can you do as an individual to help a group execute its plans? Installing water bottle-filling water fountains or rain gardens, redesigning parking lots, stenciling storm-drains...Progress for Monona begins with a commitment and a plan. What do you plan to do?
At Green Tuesdays & Thursdays you can enjoy free films, presentations, and conversations about making our world better together. Open to the public in eight locations. Monona's Green Tuesdays are on the second and fifth Tuesdays of the month, from late summer through late spring. Whole Foods Market serves treats at Monona's Green Tuesdays, so come early and stay late for delightful food and drink. See the complete calendar here: http://www.tnsmonona.org/green-tuesdays-green-thursdays/.
