Community Is Sustainable

Abstract

Facing Sustainability is the result of a semester-long project produced by 11 Honors College undergraduate students at Ball State University. This project was both overseen by, and was a contribution to, the larger nonprofit organization The Facing Project. Our class’s goal was to meet with members of our community who are passionate about sustainability and document their perspectives, insights, and words of wisdom. With this invaluable information, we wrote first-person stories describing these accounts and compiled all of them into a single, cohesive publication. With this 44-page magazine and online e-book, we plan to spread the word that everyone can practice sustainability, and we need to protect the earth by being intentional with our decisions.
