St. Petersburg Sustainability Council

St. Petersburg Sustainability Council Our goal is to establish a sustainable ethic for creating certainty in protecting, restoring and investing in St. Petersburg’s future.

The City of St Petersburg acknowledges its responsibility in creating a sustainable community, locally, regionally and globally. A sustainable community is one that persists over generations, is far seeing enough, flexible enough and wise enough to recognize the interconnection between a healthy environment, a vibrant economy, and the social equity of its citizens. Development of this ethic of sus

tainability will require a city wide effort that goes beyond city government to include business, environmental and community advocacy, neighborhood projects, financial, incentives and social development.

Great story. I put water out for the black snakes, rats, lizards and birds who share my yard.

This is Ocho. Ocho lives in my bathroom and hangs out on my orchid plant. Every day I soak a Q-Tip in water and put it down for him wherever he is (on the plant or behind the toilet or on the vanity) and he comes running over and gets a drink. Was my first reaction to smash him? Nope. To flush him down the toilet? Nope. To “burn it to the ground”? Nope. He’s literally a fraction of my size. I could easily kill him, but I choose to be kind. He deserves to be on this earth as much as I do. In fact, he contributes way more to the natural order of life on earth than I do. It’s so easy to choose kindness. I encourage everyone to take a moment and make sure the language you use when it comes to spiders, insects, rodents, etc. is kind and not fearful or disgusted. None of these beings are pests or threatening. Let them be. Help them if you can. Be kind. It’s so simple. 🕷️🕸️✌🏻🌱💜☀️
