My main impact remains on daily travels as I leave in the country side. We made the decision last year to switch our 2 diesel cars to one full electric and one hybrid and I am frustrated to see it does improve. What could I do more ?

Corinne's actions
Land + Forests
Explore My Area
When we explore natural spaces around us, our connections with them change. I will spend 1 minutes exploring a new area around my neighborhood, office, or campus (e.g., park, water body, nearby trail, community garden, green space, etc.).
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
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
Reduce Animal Products
One kilogram of beef and cheese emits 71kg and 24kg of greenhouse gasses, while 1kg of rice, grains, and legumes emits between 2-4kg. Fruits, vegetables, and nuts emit less than 1kg per 1kg. I will reduce my climate impact by enjoying 1 meatless meals and/or 0 vegan meals each day this week.
Land + Forests
30 for 30 in Nature
Studies have shown that when we spend consistent time in nature, our health improves, our creativity increases, and our connection to the planet gets stronger. Each day of the Ecochallenge, I will spend 30 minutes outside (in a large or small patch of nature), then share my observations, reflections, and learnings on the feed.
Climate + Air
Online Energy Audit
Energy use and waste is often invisible. I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.
Climate + Air
Calculate My Carbon Impact
Carbon emissions can show up in many surprising ways in our life. I will calculate the carbon emissions associated with my household and consider how lifestyle changes could reduce the carbon footprint and impacts on the environment.
Freshwater + Oceans
Understand My Water Footprint
Each of us has a water footprint, directly linked to our daily activities as well as the water required in the production of things we use each day. Understanding our water use is important for a healthy planet. I will calculate my water footprint and look for a few ways I can reduce consumption or waste, then share what I learned 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?

Corinne Aubert-Coan 4/23/2024 1:48 AMSnowing again today... and very cold and windy. I have difficulties to find motivation to go outside. I hope the snow will stop later today and I will be able to go outside for a walk... -
REFLECTION QUESTIONClimate + Air Calculate My Carbon ImpactWhere in your life do you emit the most carbon? What change are you willing to make in your daily life to reduce this output?
Corinne Aubert-Coan 4/23/2024 1:45 AMI am surprised to see that depending on the caluculator, the results are different... This year questions are less detailed than last year and my performance is not as good.
My main impact remains on daily travels as I leave in the country side. We made the decision last year to switch our 2 diesel cars to one full electric and one hybrid and I am frustrated to see it does improve. What could I do more ? -

Corinne Aubert-Coan 4/14/2024 11:04 AMWeek-end in the mountain, shared between some renovation works in our small flat and walks with our dog... Nature there is so beautiful ! It gives another motivation to protect it -
Corinne Aubert-Coan 4/11/2024 4:11 AMI was off this morning to sort some personal sutff. It went quicker than planned and I took the opportunity of some free time to walk around of the Annecy lake. As it was morning on a working day and without tourist at this period of the year, I could really enjoy it. Peaceful and reenergising...-
Roberto Arraya 4/11/2024 1:53 PMThose outdoor walks can help sort you out mentally for the daily challenges. For me it is walking my son to the kindergarten. We take the route with most nature when time allows.

Corinne Aubert-Coan 4/09/2024 12:25 PMChallenging day for me today... It was rainy and rather cold, and busy, full of meetings... no time and little motivation to go outside significantly. I made the effort, even for a shorter time than initially planned and it made me feel better.-
