Heidi 's actions
Water
Say No to Plastic Straws
An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.
Nature
Spend Time Outside
I will replace 30 minute(s) each day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.
Health
Avoid refined sugar
I will adopt a diet free of refined sugars, which eliminates sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.
Participant Feed
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?

Heidi Koehnke 10/10/2018 9:20 PMThe ecochallenge for me has been going well! I regret one of the challenges I chose which relates to my daily health choices with not being able to eat refined sugar. Otherwise I have noticed an increase in my time spent outside and choosing to exercise outside more often when the weather permits. I don't think this next half of the challenge will be too challenging but I will try to achieve all of my goals each day.
