<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Two things:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>First, I would love your feedback about the blog.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Second, I would love to pick your brains about opportunities to incorporate more of this sort of discussion into the academic and co-curricular parts of campus. Do you think that is better done by incorporating into an existing class, or as a special-event-style presentation? Or something else? </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I would like to get more of this background recycling and sustainable materials management discussion happening on campus. I think that if people have already seen this, it helps with other projects that you are working on like bottled water, etc.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Let me know what you think. </FONT></DIV>
