26 <br />Page 2 of 2 <br />Commission for the Environment <br />Background, education and experience relevant to this board: <br />James Eichel <br />Owned a construction company that received the National EPA WasteWise Small Business <br />Award (associated with recycling and reuse of material in construction). I provide a sustainable <br />recommendation at the Community Home Trust staff meeting every week . Recycling has been <br />a major concern for nearly 40 years, starting with training my daughters on the importance of <br />being good stewards of our planet. That has lead to my oldest daughter, Amanda, becoming the <br />Executive Director of the Global Covenant of Mayors for Sustainability and Climate Change, now <br />based in Brussels, Belgium. <br />Reasons for wanting to serve on this board: <br />I believe the responsibility for being good stewards of our planet is very much taken for granted, <br />and I wish to be an advocate for doing the right thing for my daughters, my grand - children, and <br />the children of all future generations. I need to do more, not wishing to have to answer to future <br />generations about what I could have done, and provided less than a proactive response. <br />Conflict of Interest: <br />Supplemental Questions: <br />Boards /Commissions appointments: <br />Other Comments: <br />This application was current on: 1/22/2018 4:23:11 PM Date Printed: 1/23/2018 <br />
