Kelly McDonald 5/10/2018 9:31 AMToday is the day to start my personal challenge - to become more aware of sustainability and how I impact it. I joined our Comerica team's challenge and selected 3 challenges to start out with. I have been recycling for several years, but I now know there is much more that I need to do. This will be a very good 69 days of learning and exploring. I will also need to reach out to my nephew who is going to college majoring in sustainability.-
