Week #1: New Year’s Resolutions Update
We’re off to a great start in 2014! If you haven’t made a resolution yet, what are you waiting for?
Green your 2014
Step into a leaner, greener YOU in 2014 by committing to a SLCgreen New Year’s Resolution. Challenge yourself to lose 3,000 pounds of CO2 (or more!) by completing household action items that help the environment and save you money.
Make your green New Year’s Resolution for 2014

Don’t overlook the impact a single family can have on our environment. The average Utah household emits over 80,000 pounds of CO2 annually through its home energy, transportation, and dietary choices. This is equivalent to driving one-way from SLC to New York City 94 times in a Prius. (Do we have your attention now?)
Increase your impact by directing friends, relatives, co-workers and strangers to make their resolution. It is, after all, the sum of all our individual actions that create the future we leave for the next generation.
Just remember: every pound of CO2 counts!
Check back for our New Year’s Resolution “Carbon Counter.” We’ll be posting how much CO2 we’ve collectively resolved to reduce in 2014!
[VIDEO] Get Inspired to Clear the Air
‘Tis the season for New Years Resolutions.
While you’re revisiting resolutions to exercise, eat healthy and spend more time with those you love (a great way to start the new year!), consider making one more resolution — to help clear the air.
Through the winter Care to Clear the Air project (2010-2012), a series of videos captured the stories of residents making a resolution to limit their impact on air quality by driving less.
Watch the videos below to hear from people that have done everything from moving closer to where they work, to biking, carpooling and taking public transit.
Their stories will inspire you to make your own resolution to help clear the air!
Kyle LaMalfa shares his commitment to take public transit.
