Hi Folks,
I think that the first step with the sustainability pledge is to figure out
content.  I thought we could make a list of all the things it could include. 
So, what do YOU think should be on it?

Here are the suggestions that we have so far:
- leave your car home and only use the zipcars and buses
-reusable mugs for coffee/tea (which also gets you a discount)
- not bringing a mini fridge
- bringing your own water bottle instead of buying bottled water
- buying used things
- turning off lights and power strips,
-biking a lot at hampshire
- using reusable bags
-keeping the heat at a reasonable level
- using cold water for laundry
