Liz Zavodsky (EcoChallenge Staff)

I will spend 30 minutes researching environmental justice concerns in my region, their causes, and local initiatives to address these concerns.

I will reduce food waste and save money by planning a weekly menu, only buying the ingredients I need.

I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

I will make 1 phone call(s) and/or send 1 emails each day to public officials to advocate for a more comprehensive public transportation system in my region.

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 30 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard.
