After realizing the gaping hole between his convictions about climate change and his own carbon footprint, Kurt Hoelting embarked on a yearlong experiment to rediscover the heart of his own home by the shores of Puget Sound. He traded in his car and jet travel for a kayak, a bicycle, and his own two feet,  traveling a radius of 100 kilometers from his home. This “circumference of home” proved more than enough for a serious look at climate change. Part quest and part guidebook for change, Hoelting’s journey is an inspiring reminder that what we need really is close at hand, and that the possibility for adventure lies around every bend.
