Yesterday was World Health Day, this week is National Public Health Week, and this month is Earth Month! Why not celebrate all 3 at once? 🌎

Shout out to The Nature Conservancy, one partner (of many!) whose mission revolves around improving the health of local communities while strengthening our planet. This video that we created with them, called Sustainable Urban Design, was even filmed in our own urban backyard. 🌳💡🏢
