About me

Location Glencoe, Illinois
Introduction In the Summer of 2006, I saw Al Gore's film, "An Inconvenient Truth" and felt the urgency and the responsibility to do what I could in my community to make the environment cleaner and heathier for me and my family. I posted no idling signage around my neighborhood and soon surrounding communities participated. Now, we have distributed nearly 100 signs to schools, park districts and businesses and have raised awareness about the need to turn car engines off while idling. Once you turn your engine off, you have taken the 1st step toward being socially responsible and environmentally conscious - Congratulations in your efforts and turn your engine off!
