This September, Green Bexley is exploring the most impactful actions we can take to be more sustainable. Inspired by Project Drawdown and sponsored by the Bexley Community Foundation, Capital University, and Simply Living, we’re excited to learn alongside you and take action towards a more sustainable future!

Ambitious action is required to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and keep the increase in average global temperature below 2—but preferably 1.5—degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Unfortunately, we’ve already raised the temperature by over 1 degree since 1880. The actions must be big, and they must be implemented on a large-scale, worldwide.

Not all actions are equal, and not all actions are applicable. This month, we’re exploring the most impactful actions that can be taken by Bexleyites, and hope you’ll join us! Find more information at greenbexley.org/sustainableseptember.

Topic of the Week: PLANT-RICH DIETS

Potential to reduce/sequester 78.33 to 103.11 gigatons of CO2 equivalent from 2020-2050

“Animal agriculture is a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions. Favoring plant-based foods reduces demand, thereby reducing land clearing, fertilizer use, and greenhouse gas emissions.” — Project Drawdown

Christine French Cully, Editor In Chief of Highlights, will discuss the why, what, and how of Hidden Pictures—a visual puzzle made famous by the iconic children’s publisher headquartered in Columbus, Ohio. Beginning with the very first issue, published in June 1946, Highlights magazine has included a Hidden Pictures puzzle in every issue—and many collections of these puzzles are available in book format, as well as in a digital app.

Christine will share examples of the various kinds of Hidden Pictures puzzles—the classic black-and-white illustration, the full-color puzzles, the puzzles created from cut paper or photographs, the super challenging puzzles, and the puzzles created for beginners. The small hidden objects may be all the same or each one different—and the larger illustration always hints at a story, often humorous. For decades, the art was reflective art, but these days it is usually created digitally.

Elizabeth Petuchowski grew up as a young Jewish girl in Germany amidst the rise of Nazism and mandatory antisemitism. She witnessed Hitler coming to power in the 1930s as a schoolgirl in Germany and experienced the outbreak of World War II in September 1939 from England where she and her immediate family had fled. Elizabeth resumed her studies and attended university in England during the WWII years before immigrating to America.

Elizabeth will share photographs from her life's journey, talk about her experience living through these historical events, reflect on the effects these universally known events had on her life, and read from her memoir, Where From and Where To: One of the Last Self-Told German Jewish Life Stories. Robin Judd, Associate Professor in The OSU Department of History with expertise in Jewish History and Immigration History, will facilitate the conversation.

Cherbourg Bakery, Geri Peacock’s flagship location, began in Bexley, Ohio in 2010. Its mission is to offer the best gluten- and nut-free baked goods in a friendly, beautiful, and welcoming environment. All items are made with minimally processed ingredients from as many local resources as possible. All products are made daily, by hand in small batches, and by following traditional baking methods and recipes.The name of the bakery came from Geri’s favorite port-town, Cherbourg, France. Her grandfather helped to liberate Cherbourg in 1944, and her grandmother came to the United States via the same town. Geri loves Cherbourg with its welcoming people and down-to-earth feel. Cherbourg Bakery offers that same sense of welcome, dependability, and warmth.

Marlon James is a Jamaican author who has been the recipient of a number of awards, including the 2015 Man Booker Prize for Fiction. The New York Times called his novel A Brief History of Seven Killings “... epic in every sense of that word: sweeping, mythic, over-the-top, colossal and dizzyingly complex. It’s also raw, dense, violent, scalding, darkly comic, exhilarating and exhausting – a testament to Mr. James’s vaulting ambition and prodigious talent.”

The community is invited to the free lecture by Marlon James which starts at 7:30 pm in Mees Hall. To learn more, please click here.

The National Prescription Drug Take Back Day addresses a crucial public safety and public health issue. According to the 2019 National Survey on Drug Use and Health, 9.7 million people misused prescription pain relievers, 4.9 million people misused prescription stimulants, and 5.9 million people misused prescription tranquilizers or sedatives in 2019. The survey also showed that a majority of misused prescription drugs were obtained from family and friends, often from the home medicine cabinet.

The DEA’s Take Back Day events provide an opportunity for Americans to prevent drug addiction and overdose deaths. If you have expired or unused medications (pill or liquid) around your home, please consider properly discarding them on April 22 between 10:00 am - 2:00 pm at the Bexley Police Station, 559 N.
