Gavin's actions
Waste
Reduce Single-Use Disposables
Historically, marginalized and low-income communities live closer to landfills, contributing to a multitude of health problems. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate.
Transportation
Improve a Bus Stop
I will improve a bus stop in my neighborhood by posting the stop schedule, adding seating or shelter, adding art or flowers, picking up litter, or some other small improvement.
Simplicity
Less Screen Time
I will replace 15 minute(s) of screen time each day with other activities.
Water
Conserve Toilet Water
I will save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.
Simplicity
Meditate
I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 2 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.
Health
More Fruits and Veggies
I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 2 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

REFLECTION QUESTIONSimplicity Less Screen TimeWhat did you notice in implementing this challenge? Was it hard to choose other activities over screen time? How did you decide to spend your time?
Gavin Bent 10/09/2018 5:39 AMNo actually It wasn't because I need to pack up for (It's a secret that mostly only 4th graders are supposed too no for now.) I still have lots of paper out so I just draw a lot. My grampa is visiting too that is a lot of fun. -
