Shreveport Aquarium

I learned about the way that climate change is effecting coral reefs. I also learned about octopus populations across the world.

I know that more people need to cut down on single use plastics. For me, my reusable water bottle is practically second nature at this point.

No, I use about as much oil as I figured that I did. Maybe I need to slightly scale back, but I’m pretty good on that score overall.

Not in the slightest. I always carry my purchase, use my own cloth bags, or use paper bags.

I learned about the various raptors, and other birds of prey, by watching the PBS series Nature.

We had a blast cleaning up the parking lot and park areas around out work building. The Red River runs right behind it, and it only takes three days for the trash in our parking lot to make it to the Gulf of Mexico.

I spent an hour at Lake Bistineau State Park, which is 45 minutes from my apartment downtown. It was beautiful. The moss hanging from the cypress trees looked like a movie, and I even discovered that they rent canoes. Maybe next time I'll have to rent one of those and explore even farther into the lake.

It's a great day to start off the eco-challenge
