~Louisa, EcoLogicals Team Captain
Modal Description
Watch the short video below to learn the basics.
You'll be an 2018 People's Ecochallenge expert in no time!
I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.
I will spend 30 minutes researching toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.
I will reduce food waste and save money by planning a weekly menu, only buying the ingredients I need.
I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.
I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of C02 over the course of the next year.
I will save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.
I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.
I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.
