Featured Team

Picture
The MarInnovators Team consisted of 17 households of 40 people, reduced 317,172 pounds of carbon emissions, which is the second-highest among all of our teams from the beginning! They earned 213,345 resilience points.

The participants took action in many areas, ranging from growing more vegetables, to rejecting plastic packaging to getting a new heat pump water heater.  
Nearly half of the team members are residents of the Kent Woodlands neighborhood and are contributing towards the community's goal of becoming carbon-neutral by 2030.

Team member Freya appreciated our program's systematic approach, which breaks down actions into manageable steps.

We are thankful to every team member. Together, we make a big difference!
