In 2015, National Geographic ranked Louisville as the #1 food city in the world. Need we say more?

ENERGY

Typical US household power consumption is about 11,700 kWh each year, in France it is 6,400 kWh, in the UK it is 4,600 kWh and in China around 1,300 kWh. The global average electricity consumption for households with electricity was roughly 3,500 kWh.

TRANSPORTATION

Louisville offers endless options when it comes to environmentally friendly transportation alternatives. Rent a bike, hop on a bus, or join a ride share program. If we opted out of driving for trips less than a mile long, we would save 2 million metric tons of CO2 emissions per year.

WASTE & RECYCLING

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Restore! If everyone recycled just one can we could reduce green house gas emissions equivalent to taking 6,750 passenger cars off the road and save energy equivalent to 80 thousand barrels of oil

WATER

The Earth might seem like it has abundant water, but in fact less than 1 percent is available for human use. While population and demand on freshwater resources are increasing, supply will always remain constant.

YARD

The emissions from gas-powered mowers and trimmers contribute to air pollution, while mowing over native grasses and wildflowers reduce the nectar for pollinators. Instead of sticking to a weekly mowing schedule, consider letting your grass grow long! Skip the herbicide, and let your lawn become a no-mow sanctuary.
