Laura's actions
Wildlife
Research a Wild Animal
I will spend at least 5 minutes learning about a wild animal I find interesting, including their life cycle, habitat, ecosystem functions, and interactions with humans (if any!).
Climate
Post Your Sustainable Action Photos!
Take a photo of yourself doing something sustainable (either one of your Ecochallenge actions) or something else. Then, go to Comerica's Café (under Colleague Resources on Connect) and add your photo to the Gone Green Photo Album!
Oceans
Smart Seafood Choices
I will visit seafoodwatch.org or download the app and commit to making better seafood choices for a healthier ocean.
Food
Learn the Truth About Expiration Dates
I will spend at least 5 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.
Wildlife
Support Pollinators
At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators, including monarch butterflies, to produce fruit. I will spend 5 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard.
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?

Laura Armstrong 4/20/2020 8:19 AMGiven the current environment, my grocery store is requiring that if we bring our own reusable bags that we have to bag our own groceries. It's somewhat of a pain but something I'm happy to do to help our environment. :) -
Laura Armstrong 4/16/2020 6:17 AMI agree, Vanessa, in that the scope of available actions is somewhat limited due to the shelter in place so I've done more online learning and of course still enjoyed it. Good work, all!
