As spiritual companions, we are concerned with peace, justice, and integrity of all creation. Because we are all inter-connected, we hope to be models for good stewardship and aware that each action ripples out into the greater universe.

I’ve heard of going green, what is going blue?

Going blue is recognition that fresh drinking water is a renewable resource that is dwindling. By conserving water, we ensure there is enough fresh water for the present and the future.

What can I do to conserve water while traveling?

Use personal, reusable water bottles
Let the hotel know it is not necessary to change sheets and towels daily
Remember to turn off heat, air conditioning, lights, televisions when we are not using them
Leave behind unused sample shampoos and soaps
Pass on newspapers and magazines instead of throwing them away
Reduce water usage while showering, bathing and brushing teeth
Avoid Styrofoam and take-out packaging
Only take handouts we need and access information and handouts online
