You'll be an Earth Day Ecochallenge expert in no time!
I will replace or remove the palm oil, coffee, and cocoa products in my current diet that are known to contribute to deforestation.
I will spend at least 25 minutes learning about a wild animal I find interesting, including their life cycle, habitat, ecosystem functions, and interactions with humans (if any!).
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.
I will respect and protect biotic communities by practicing the seven principles of Leave No Trace when doing nature activities alone or with family and friends.
I will reduce food waste and save money by prepping for 2 meal(s) each day, only buying the ingredients I need.
I will spend at least 10 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.
I will enjoy 1 meatless meal(s) and/or 2 vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.
I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 7 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.
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?
