Maureen Cavanaugh : Some of us are very good about recycling, and others use as little water as possible. There are those in San Diego who voluntarily take public transportation and even people who always turn off electrical appliances they are not using. But are there actually people who do all of the above and more? Are there people who are dedicated to conservation?
A pilot program launched in San Diego this week, called "Stand for Less" is challenging all of us to do all we can to use less energy, less water, to drive less and to create less garbage for our landfills. It's an effort to promote a "conservation lifestyle" and it's got some pretty powerful supporters. San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders, the San Diego Association of Governments and the California Department of Conservation are just a few of the officials and agencies introducing the Stand for Less program.
