    The Eco challenge has been good this far. I usually go grocery shopping about every other week. Whenever I go grocery shopping I get a bunch of plastic bags for all of my food. The past few times I have gone grocery shopping I have been going with my friend who owns a lot of reusable bags. Using these bags eliminates a lot of the plastic I usually use. Also, going with a friend means carpooling, therefore we send less CO2 into the atmosphere. The rest of my daily challenges have also been successful this far!
