    This has been such an amazing month - so much to learn from, and reading through all the posts on Ecochallenge really provided us so many ideas on how to make an impact.

    This whole challenge has been a ton of fun and I think I even learned a bit about myself and my co-workers!!!!!

    Hi all! If you're interested in buying an indoor bike, check out this article I wrote for A Sweat Life in Chicago.  I go through options that fit every budget and lifestyle :) https://asweatlife.com/2020/04/at-home-bike-comparison/

    Food sovereignty focuses on local food production rather than importing (transportation cost and eco-impact) and avoids choosing low cost (but ethically questionable) sources in favor of local sources that support sustainable lifestyles for the workers there.

    Cleaning up our community feels great. I live in a small area with a park and everybody does their part to keep things clean and wipes down benches and surfaces that have been sat on to protect others from potential contamination, which is great to see.

    Part of being vegan means cutting out seafood, which is tough for me! Over fishing is a real issue, however. I try to limit seafood to a couple of times a month to decrease my impact on the supply chain.

    In Chicago, a sustainable water future would probably start with less pollution in Lake Michigan.  22 million lbs of plastic enters the lake each year!

    During these times, it's tough to cut electricity costs when you're home all the time, but I only use one LED task light when I work and the ample windows we have in our apartment usually does enough to light our space.

    Connecting with others in a meaningful way can help mental and emotional health - it can break through feelings of isolation, which may be particularly common during these unprecedented times.

    this is a convenient excuse to watch Netflix documentaries about nature which I already enjoy
