    Commuting by transit is easy and relaxing

    Congrats Port of Portland EcoChallenge Team! We learned and laughed, we improved our health and knowledge, and we came in at 20th in a field of 842 teams.  We also won two of our three team challenges (and on a per-participant point basis, we were winners all the way around).  Way to go!  Special recognition to Nicole Campbell - who was our...

    It's always important to be reminded of the simple things you can do daily to make a difference

    I can't believe its the end of the Eco Challenge already.  My family survived the meatless meals and were enlightened by watching documentaries about food.  The most successful meatless meal was the sweet potato crusted spinach quiche.  We also recommend watching the sriracha documentary on netflix.

    I would like to spend more time reflecting on how my activities and relationships make me feel mentally and physically. It is easy to feel automated when moving about life, but I would like to observe what activities or people are positive influences on my life and perhaps observe some that aren't. This could help me optimize how I spend my...

    I regularly use some single-use food packaging, such as single-use hummus cups. I should try making my own hummus and buying small reusable containers that I could use instead of disposable ones. This would probably be healthier for me nutritionally, too!

    Practicing gratitude helps me to focus on the positive parts of this world rather than being brought down by the negatives.

    I love seeing my results at the end of the challenge.  It's awesome to see how my choices do make an impact.  
  • October 24 at 4:00 PM
    I think these challenges really made me think about being more intentional with my actions and the long term impact of my actions. Trying to remove my waste from the environment and choosing options that are better for the environment are going to be my long term goals. I want to work more on reducing my plastic waste. I think that is a little...

    The challenge is over and is has been a great experience for me and my family.  I have been religious about using only durable cups and reusable water bottles, and have shown my son how to do that too.  I have learned more about native communities and renewable energy, and have made an appointment for my annual physical, which I don't usually...
