 Kurt paddles close to home Kurt Hoelting saw a big gap between his convictions and actions on climate change. So he committed to a year of living car-free and staying within a 62-mile radius of his home on Whidbey Island, Washington. Rather than feeling restricted, Hoelting says that he feels less bored and restless than before, and that the whole experience has been an “adventure and a declaration of independence.” He also feels a deeper connection to the small part of the world he has gotten to know so well. He’s hopeful that his effort will be one of thousands of creative responses to climate change. |
