Insight - As consumers think about the future of climate change and how their lives will be impacted by it, lifestyle changes both large and small are top-of-mind. However, in order for change to actually be enforced, consumers require spaces and opportunities that empower a change in lifestyle habits. Thus, providing individuals and communities with the tools to live more sustainability is crucial.
