    This was a great challenge, I am so glad I participated! I have been more mindful of my time spent outdoors and have cleaned up my recycling habits. This was a wonderful opportunity! :)

    I am so thankful that I could participate in this Ecochallenge, I have learned a great deal and am already implementing into my daily life.  Thank you!

    I have switched to reusable mugs, but could be even better with using them more frequently.  I do occasionally buy coffee and get singe use coffee cups (I make sure to recycle them) but could buy a reusable mug from that particular location and request to use my personal mug.  It makes me feel like I am using resources wisely, reducing trash,...

    Most ecosystems fluctuate within a range of tolerances where higher levels of one resource or force push balancing levels in other areas. When a new factor or force is introduced, it can take awhile for the system to achieve it's new balance.  Making wise choices about consumption helps preserve that balance instead of using up resources that...

    MOVING BOXES FOR SHOPPING.  I have flattened 6 of my moving boxes and now take them into the stores,  pop them open and use them instead of the store plastic bags.  Plus they hold more weight than bags and the box slots for carrying are convenient and more durable and reusable.  Wish I would have done this sooner.

    UNPACKED.  I finished unpacking after my move and recycled all boxes either by giving them to others needing boxes or in the recycle bin.
