    I would encourage everyone to make more healthier choices and to help our planet stay safe. I mean if we can't live on Earth, then where else can we go?

    I joined this challenge because it was a homework assignment. But, this does not feel like a homework assignment. It was fun doing these challenges and I will continue to make healthier choices beyond this challenge.
