SUNY Adirondack

Absolutely! Engaging with my neighbors is a blessing! Slowing down helps everything!

The challenge is going great. I was glad to see that something like this exists. I was inspired to do more than I would have, and will keep many of these habits. 

Turn off computers, turn down the thermostat, use LEF lights, unplug appliances that aren’t being used all the time, take shorter showers, hang clothes to dry instead of using dryer all the time 

Can't believe we've reached the end of this challenge. Glad I took a lot out of this and can't wait to continue on with these good habits I now have in place.

I choose to not eat seafood altogether for this reason.

We take shorter showers to reduce our water waste.

At my families lake house we do not use fertilizer at all to make sure we don't upset the fresh water ecosystem.

Flooding because of the mountain runoff in the spring time when the snow melts off. Rivers tend to overflow.

Being outdoors makes you realize there is much more to life than what is right in front of us.

It was simple to make small changes over time that in turn make a huge difference.
