Rockland County EcoTeams

EcoTeams are groups of households in a neighborhood which come together to explore and commit to actions leading to a more Earth-friendly lifestyle.


Members of the Sustainable Lifestyle Campaign

EcoTeams meet regularly over a period of four months taking various actions from the following action areas: garbage, water, energy, transportation and consumption. Suggested actions for each action area are provided by an EcoTeam workbook. It is up to each household to decide which actions they wish to take. Leadership for the meetings is rotated among team members. Team members create a strong sense of community often sharing their knowledge, tools and other resources. Groups sometimes include a potluck in one or more of their meetings, and often continue to get together well after the program is over.
