Elisa's actions
Action Track: Community
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.
Action Track: Community
SIGN UP TO RECEIVE NEWS ON SUSTAINABILITY AT EMERSON
I will sign up to the Sustainability Aficionados distribution list to receive global news on sustainability at Emerson, including world news and Greening OF, BY, and WITH news.
Action Track: Community
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.
Biodiversity + Wildlife
Seek Alternative Gifts and Souvenirs
When traveling, I will seek souvenirs that support local communities and do not cause harm to the environment or wildlife.
Land + Forests
Personal Waste Audit
The waste we create daily can go unnoticed. I will track the waste I create in a day and post a photo log on the feed to see how much I create and where I can make different choices to reduce my waste going forward.
Action Track: Community
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.
Biodiversity + Wildlife
Learn about Native Species
The world is full of unique species. I will spend 15 minutes each day learning what the native plants and wildlife are in my region.
Climate + Air
Consume only Needs vs Wants
The more stuff we consume, the more greenhouse gasses we put into the atmosphere. I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach this month and only buy things I need.
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.
Land + Forests
Forest-Friendly Foods
I will look for sustainable palm oil products with the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSP) label. I will replace or remove the palm oil, coffee, and cocoa products in my current diet that are known to contribute to deforestation and opt for ones that help sustain healthy communities and forests.
Land + Forests
Zero Waste Day
The impacts of our waste are far reaching. I will create zero waste for an entire day and share my reflections and learnings on the feed.
Participant Feed
Reflection, encouragement, and relationship building are all important aspects of getting a new habit to stick.
Share thoughts, encourage others, and reinforce positive new habits on the Feed.
To get started, share “your why.” Why did you join the challenge and choose the actions you did?

REFLECTION QUESTIONClimate + Air Consume only Needs vs WantsConsuming only what we need vs. what we want can be really hard to do. What has been challenging about committing to this action for a month? What have you learned about yourself? Will you change any habits going forward?
Elisa Amiaud 4/22/2024 2:41 AMThis year I decided that it was time to change my habits and buy only what I needed, so I made a commitment not to buy any new clothes this year. I've got quite a few in my cupboard that I hardly ever wear, so this is a good opportunity to bring them out again.-
Severine GONZALEZ-GILLOT 4/23/2024 9:56 AMgreat ! it is not an easy decision ... congrats :)

REFLECTION QUESTIONLand + Forests Zero Waste DayWhat was hard about having a Zero Waste Day? What did you learn about yourself and your habits?
Elisa Amiaud 4/17/2024 3:34 AMBeing zero-waste is achievable for everyone, it just requires myself to organise my daily life differently, and find the right shops to stock up. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONBiodiversity + Wildlife Seek Alternative Gifts and SouvenirsHow do your consumption choices affect the health of wildlife and other communities?
Elisa Amiaud 4/15/2024 1:00 AMRather than buying souvenirs such as magnets or other knick-knacks, I chose to offer culinary specialities or locally made products. -
Elisa Amiaud 4/07/2024 2:52 AMToday I cooked a 100% vegan meal for my meat-loving friends, what a pleasure to see that they enjoyed my flavourful cooking and to have managed to love them a little of this cuisine.-

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?
Elisa Amiaud 4/06/2024 1:35 PMI've been trying my hand at vegetarian diet for several month now, I recently wayched the documentary "You Are What You Eat" on netflix which showcases the benefits of a vegan diet. This documentary is amazing, but I'm still not sure I'm ready to give up cheese.-
Jeanne Poirier 4/06/2024 6:55 PMCheese is the hardest to give up in a vegan diet IMHO. However there are great alternatives these days. I like Daiya, Violife and Chao. Costs more, but feel personally it's worth it. After Cowspiracy, Seaspiracy and more . . . and gratefully I'm not pinching the pennies too hard :) -
Melissa Hutton 4/06/2024 2:04 PMThanks for sharing, I will give this documentary a watch. Let me know if you find a substitute for Cheese!! I agree, and to date have not found anything to take it's place. This is a challenge for sure! Cheers :)

REFLECTION QUESTIONAction Track: Community Keep My Community CleanHow does the act of picking up litter connect you more to your community?
Elisa Amiaud 4/06/2024 1:29 PMSince I started paying attention, I've been amazed at the number at the amount of garbage I see on the streets every day.
