    Learned I could take a few moments and appreciate our resources, Mother Nature and think more about the choices I make and how it affects it all!

    Thank you for another fun year of Ecochallenge. I find that the thoughts and habits that occur during this challenge overflow into the rest of my year.  Can you add a civic involvement section next year? Thank you again! Murholt Falls.JPG 3.58 MB

    Our ecosystem is a delicate balance and needs to be protected.  The earth is in trouble and we all need to do our part to get our ecosystem back in balance.  Otherwise our earth will continue to see the negative effects and our planet will die.

    I was annoyed at the apparent excessive amount of material used to create the new-fangled 6-pack carriers.  Then I learned PakTech handles are made in Eugene and I may be able to take them here for recycling:  https://hopworksbeer.com/do-good/do-what-you-can/
