Kenosha County is the southeastern most county in Wisconsin with a history of a strong commitment to advancing county-wide sustainability goals. Cool Choices was a natural fit and the results are impressive.
With the support of County Executive Jim Kreuser, Kenosha County staff recently wrapped up their 6-week implementation of the Cool Choices online sustainability game; they made significant and inspiring impacts during their program. Teams of 8 earned points and won prizes for reporting their daily sustainable actions, including recycling, carpooling, saving fuel, choosing meatless meals, and conserving water.
In their game, participants from Kenosha County reported over 7,400 sustainable actions and achieved estimated savings of over $67,000.

The game also prompted some employees to start a worm compost project! How cool is that?!
“Kenosha County wants to help employees save money and live more sustainably. At Cool Choices we also recognize the changes staff make at the municipal level have the potential to impact all of southeast Wisconsin. Cool Choices is excited about this partnership with Kenosha County because of the positive change it has inspired in employees and residents of the region,” noted Raj Shukla, Director of Programs at Cool Choices.
Once again, the Cool Choices team sends our congrats to Kenosha County employees!
