Aynur's actions
Climate + Air
Low Carbon Diet
Carbon is emitted into the atmosphere in a variety of ways, including through the foods we eat and food we waste. I will learn about low carbon foods and replace higher carbon foods with them in my diet.

JOIN OR CREATE A GREEN TEAM AT EMERSON
I will continue to contribute to Emerson's environmental sustainability goals beyond April by learning more about the Global Green Teams Network, joining a team near me, or maybe even creating a new team.

TAKE PICTURES AND SHARE ON LINKEDIN
I will take at least one photograph that is connected with this year's theme of Nature Conservation & Biodiversity (for example an urban park, bee hives, birds and other animals...) and I will post it on LinkedIn with the hashtags #EarthMonthEcochallenge #EarthMonthAtEmerson.
Action Track: Community
ATTEND THE ECOCHALLENGE CONSERVATION WEBINAR
On Wed 24th April, I will attend the Earth Month Ecochallenge Webinar on Conservation to learn about what individuals, companies and other organizations can do to promote biodiversity and nature protection.
Land + Forests
Keep My Community Clean
At times it may not feel like it's up to us to keep our community clean and healthy, but we all have a role to play. Each day I am outside, I will pick up any litter I see.
Freshwater + Oceans
Join a Cleanup Effort
I will organize or participate in a trash pickup at a local river, beach, or natural body of water.
Freshwater + Oceans
Dishwasher Efficiency
Hand washing dishes can use more energy and hot water than a dishwasher. To save water, I will use a dishwasher and scrape, rather than rinse, dishes before loading them into the dishwasher.
Freshwater + Oceans
Reduce Pollutants in Cleaning
Understanding cleaning product ingredients and their effect on water and biodiversity is helpful to our consumer choices. I will spend 5 minutes learning about how cleaning products affect our water and try making my own cleaning products to reduce pollutants.
Freshwater + Oceans
Cooking Oil Disposal
Pouring cooking oil down the drain can cause damage to waterways and ecosystems. I will learn how to properly dispose of cooking oil to help support healthy ecosystems.
Freshwater + Oceans
Raise Awareness for the Conservation of Freshwater and Oceans
I will spend 10 minutes learning more about the importance of freshwater + ocean conservation, and how I can reduce my water use. I will share what I learn with people in person, on social media, and on the feed.

REFLECTION QUESTIONClimate + Air Low Carbon DietWhich high carbon foods will you eat less of, and what are some low carbon options you'll choose instead?
Aynur Aytar 4/30/2024 12:22 AMLess high carbon foods are beef and lamb and plant-based proteins like beans, lentils, tofu or sustainable seafood like sardines. These products have smaller environmental impact and I tried to use them and will continue to do so. -
Aynur Aytar 4/30/2024 12:17 AMAnd here is the last day ....... it's been a quite ride! from reducing waste to adopting eco-friendly habits, every day brought new opportunities to make a difference. I have learned so much about sustainability and how small changes can have a big impact.-

Aynur Aytar 4/29/2024 3:04 AMGreat Visit to Eco Park Baku! There are more than 50 thousand various types of ornamental and fruit trees and many exotic plants. There is also enclosed winter garden under a glass ceiling with a river and tropical plants. You’ll also find here examples of carpet weaving – an integral part of our national culture. Witnessing Nature’s beauty reinforced the importance of our collective responsibility to preserve and protect our environment.

REFLECTION QUESTIONFreshwater + Oceans Reduce Pollutants in CleaningWhat did you learn about ingredients in our cleaning products and how they impact water and biodiversity? Did you try making your own cleaning products? If so, how did it go?
Aynur Aytar 4/23/2024 5:47 AMI have investigated and learned that ingredients in our cleaning products have potential harmful effects such as chemical runoff into waterways, which can disrupt ecosystems and harm aquatic life. Additionally, certain ingredients like phosphates can contribute to nutrient pollution, leading to algal blooms and oxygen depletion in water bodies. Conversely, eco-friendly ingredients and biodegradable formulations can minimize these negative impacts and promote healthier ecosystems.
