Welcome to the WaysToSustain blog

Hello, I’m Mark Bowling and I help run the site WaysToSustain.com.  After being in the environmental field for over 15 years I’ve found that most people think being environmentally friendly or sustainable is simply a do or don’t decision.  I thought that I’d use this blog to share some of the daily issues I face and the rational that is usually involved in trying to make sustainable or “Green” decisions. You'd be surprised at how much consideration goes into business, policy, and strategies.

Now you might be thinking there can’t be that many different issues.  Here is a quick peek at some of the issues I hope to cover is some upcoming blogs.

• What is more sustainable, hand dryer or paper towels? 
• Why is that old gas station property still sitting empty? 
• Why is that old grocery store stilling empty? 
• Why are low flow toilets not used every where?
  

I’ll also share my opinions about products for home use or commercial use that I find interesting or useful.

If at any time you have a question or would like to provide feedback, feel free to post a comment or drop me a line and I’ll try to get back to you promptly.

Thanks for dropping by and I look forward to sharing with you.
