"I love how creativity and climate action converge to inspire transformation and joy. My hope for this EcoChallenge is to hang out with other people in our region, working together toward a common goal, and hopefully feeling connected, even as we stay apart. I've always been a pretty serious person, but have found that the more climate actions I take, the more playful I become. Let's have some fun in April!"
Complete an art project using found objects, waste and other materials you have at home. Share what you create on the Virtual Earth Day Art Show at AVA Gallery.
I will reduce food waste and save money by prepping for 3 meal(s) each day, only buying the ingredients I need.
I will scrape, rather than rinse, dishes before loading into the dishwasher and only run the dishwasher when it’s full.
I will enjoy 2 meatless meal(s) and/or 1 vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.
The purpose of the challenge is for people to record a short video or take photos of themselves doing one thing that is good for the earth, then in the video, challenge their family, friends and others to do their own video. People who accept the challenge should post the videos on any or all of their social media platforms (Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter) and use the hashtag #OneThing4Earth and tag NHDES (@NHDES for Twitter; @NHenvironmentalservices for Facebook and Instagram) The worldwide response to the coronavirus pandemic is and should be all of our priorities. NHDES hopes that a social media-based video challenge, like the #OneThing4Earth, will provide people practicing social distancing with a way to recognize the importance of Earth Day. You do not have to be challenged to participate, but remember in your video to challenge your friends, family, coworkers and others to join in. This challenge was created by the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (NHDES).
I will express my love and gratitude for our Earth by writing a love letter, poem, or song to Earth.
I will connect with at least 1 person/people a day through phone call or video chat to support mine and other’s mental and emotional health during this challenging time.
