You'll be an 2018 People's Ecochallenge expert in no time!
Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 20 minute(s) each day.
Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 30 minutes researching and recycling all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.
I will purchase produce and meat from a local farmers market or food co-op.
I will watch 3 documentary(ies) about food sovereignty: the right of local peoples to control their own food systems including markets, ecological resources, food cultures and production methods.
I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning, pickling, or baking bread.
I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.
I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 10 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.
I will use the 'Learn More' resources below to find where I can forage for my own food locally.
I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.
Reflection, encouragement, and relationship building are all important aspects of getting a new habit to stick.
Share thoughts, encourage others, and reinforce positive new habits on the Feed.
To get started, share “your why.” Why did you join the challenge and choose the actions you did?
