Steve Schechter, our local Lorax, was an ultimate Advocate for the Earth. He was known for doing the right thing, whether it was making his home as efficient as possible, driving an electric car, or speaking out about issues in our community.
To honor Steve's recent passing everyone is encouraged to commit to GOING SCHECHTER and Advocating for the Earth by taking some personal actions to improve your own home, life, or community. Some ideas are listed below.

* Proceeds from Going Schechter sticker sales go to Habitat for Humanity in Gunnison, Colorado, USA.
