Kristin Kallesen is an activist at heart, a landscape designer by trade and is passionate about finding green solutions that address issues such as climate change and the pressures of population growth.  Having taken courses from atmospheric science to nature conservation, she draws from a broad background and interest in the environmental challenges of our time.   She believes the answer lies in cooperation and concerted community effort; that neighbourhoods can begin to address these problems when they work together towards a common goal of sustainability.
