Sustainable Earth Solutions is Dave's organization to help drive his efforts to engage youth leadership. What we are looking to do is to document how the Environmental Youth Summit has changed lives. To do this, we would love to invite you to blog your memories of the summit, your resulting experiences, and encourage the sharing of whatever you feel is important that resulted from the event.
Blog Link: http://www.sustainableearthsolutions.org/Home/Blogs/tabid/84/EntryID/9/Default.aspx
As a big thank you, we're hoping that we could offer a $10 gift card from Starbucks to the person (or people) who posts the most topic-related blogs at the SES web site by July 1.
If you have any questions on how to access the site and post a blog, I can walk you through. Contact me at aarongilbee@gmail.com.
