This week, Michael Di Tizio is sharing his 3 sustainable actions.
I met Michael years ago at Green Drinks in Northern Liberties (when it was my ‘hood), where he ensures participants connect over great beer. In addition to changing his role at work to focus on sustainability, Michael distributes the Green Drinks Delaware Valley website & newsletter to keep us up to date on events and local issues.
Name: Michael Di Tizio
Neighborhood: Northern Liberties
Occupation: Change Management & Sustainability Specialist at Canon Solutions America
How long have you lived in Philly? All of my life. South Philly born and raised, and every time I come back from traveling, I realize what an amazing, rough-edged, vibrant and improbable place Philly is. No place even comes close to it.
When did you get involved in sustainability?: I have always had a passion for ecology. My current work has allowed me to leverage that interest in the service of corporate social responsibility, their customers and the communities they serve. Every day is an adventure; knowing that my efforts will help change things and make the world greener.
Readers, what have you done this week? What are your goals?
