Sophia's actions
Food
Compost Food Waste
I will avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill each day by composting my food or learning how to.
Food
Reduce Animal Products
I will enjoy 3 meatless meal(s) and/or 3 vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.
Wildlife
Use Reusable Bags
Plastic bags can be mistaken for food by many wild animals. If at all possible, I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases, including produce bags.
Oceans
Learn about Our Oceans
I will spend at least 30 minutes learning about how our oceans support life on Earth by producing oxygen, regulating climate, and providing habitat, food, and jobs.
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?

REFLECTION QUESTIONWildlife Use Reusable BagsWhat do you do if you find yourself in the situation of needing a bag for items but don't have a reusable one with you? Carry things out in your hands? In a cart? Accept a disposable one? If you find yourself in this position often, what system could you put in place to try to create a successful habit of not using plastic bags?
Sophia Goble 4/23/2020 10:42 AMFor me, I go grocery shopping with my family quite often. Not so much anymore during the pandemic, but I have to say that I am pretty good at remembering the reusable bags. If we don’t have a reusable bag, sometimes we purchase one because at one of the grocery stores we shop at, they take off 10 cents off of your receipt per reusable bag you fill. A hack for never forgetting your plastic bags is to just keep them in the car so you will never forget them when you go to the store. I never use plastic bags for carrying groceries because they are nowhere in our city. Unless you go to Beaverton or someplace like that, it’s difficult to get a plastic bag when you go shopping.
