A few months back, we were on the hunt for some green people to profile, and we got a note from Nancy Wood – she nominated herself. We liked her spirit, so we immediately interrogated her. Her answers are below:
Name: Nancy Margaret Wood
Age: 60
Town you live in: Concord
Day job: Interface engineer at Concord Hospital
Three of the greenest things you do:
1. Keep the heat low in winter.
2. Recycle a lot.
3. Save vegetable scraps and bring them to a farmer who composts them.
Why you do it: I love the Earth and its occupants.
Your friends would call you a(n): I don’t know what they call me!
Advice for people who are just turning green: Start with one area you are comfortable working on like drying laundry on racks (instead of using a humidifier in winter), conserving water or using less stuff.
Biggest pet peeve: Some people will not make the effort to recycle – at least bottles, cans, paper.
(If you or a loved one are an example for us all who should be featured in the next issue of Green Living, send an e-mail to danielle@greenguidenh.com and tell us why!)
