David Colgan in LAist: Reduce. Reuse. REFILL. Where To Get Your Products Topped Off In LA

Shopping smart is a part of the shift David Colgan, communications director of The Institute of the Environment and Sustainability at UCLA and co-author of The Green Bundle: Pairing the Market with the Planet, sees happening.

While Colgan strongly believes that legislation is the key to a larger societal shift, he thinks people are becoming more acutely aware of climate change — and the impact of their personal habits. As that shift happens, “we’re going to see a continued surge in the market for these [environmentally consciousness] products,” he said.
