Solomon's actions
Fresh Water
Dishwasher Efficiency
I will scrape, rather than rinse, dishes before loading into the dishwasher and only run the dishwasher when it’s full.
Wildlife
Research a Wild Animal
I will spend at least 20 minutes learning about a wild animal I find interesting, including their life cycle, habitat, ecosystem functions, and interactions with humans (if any!).
Fresh Water
Conserve Toilet Water
I will save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.
People
Spend Time Outside
I will replace 20 minute(s) each day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside that follows CDC guidelines for preventing disease spread.

REFLECTION QUESTIONFresh WaterHow can your region/household prepare for changing water situations in order to become more resilient?
Solomon Blake 4/07/2020 12:43 PMI'm in charge of most of the dishes in our house, so I thought this would be a good way for me to reduce our household water consumption. Starting this challenge has brought to light some habits of mine that I could absolutely change. For starters, when I do rinse dishes, I tend to leave the sink on for the next one. I've started consciously shutting off the sink between dishes so it's not just going down the drain.
