Take part in the new
AWCH Club Environmentally Mindful
We all know we must take action to save our environment. But what does that mean to each of us in
our everyday lives and how can we make a difference?
The new AWCH Environmentally Mindful team was created to help answer these questions. The team
will produce Guidelines for the AWCH to use during our ventures, organize events, suggest actions
that we can take in our daily lives, and help us all understand how we can make a difference as in-
dividuals, and as an AWCH community.

2020: The year that counts
In 2020, world leaders will come together during key global conferences and forums to set the environmental agen-
da for the next decade and beyond. Crucial political decisions will be made on climate action, nature, and sus-
tainable development—decisions that will directly affect the fate of humanity and our planet for years to come.

“I believe we
need to be envi-
ronmentally mind-
ful to challenge
ourselves and
those around us in
taking that extra
step to just ‘do
the right thing’.
There are so many
small things we
can do to have a
cleaner, greener
impact on our
home, community
and city. Let’s be
the leaders!”
- Shanan R.
“Strive for
change and
remain mindful.
Together, we will
create a bright
future for our-
selves and our
planet. Reduc-
ing our waste
and incorporat-
ing sustainable
practices into
our daily lives
will help keep
our oceans blue
and our icebergs
frozen.”

Taking an active
part in my daily
decisions and
understanding
how they impact
the environment.
Being mindful
means you can
be fully aware
of your actions
and take steps to
change your be-
havior in a way
that is positive
for you and our
world.”
“We and our envi-
ronment are co-
dependent to be
mutually benefi-
cial. To be envi-
ronmentally mind-
ful for me means
to be aware of
the impact of my
personal choices
on the environ-
ment, and share
my learning and
experiences in
this area with
the members of
AWCH.”
“I believe that
being environ-
mentally mind-
ful helps us feel
connected to our
own behavior,
and understand
the impact we
all have on the
environment and
the future of our
planet.”
