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?

I think there will be some days where I'm not able to complete all 5, but I still think this will help me build better habits and learn more about my personal impact.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Waste Recycle Everything I Can

What have you learned about what is accepted by local haulers for recycling, what you can drop off or ship to certain places, and what is not recyclable in your area? What is the most difficult part of recycling for you?

I can drop off glass at the East Recycling Center, and today I was able to collect glass bottles for an event at our house. However, I still need to learn more about aluminum. We recycle paper and plastic in our curbside bin.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Community Talk To My Friends and Colleagues

What makes you feel connected to your neighborhood, your neighbors, or another kind of community in your life?
