SDG 9
Each day, I will spend time developing a readiness plan for my household in the event of an emergency.
My town has a gardening/outdoors lecture series. I volunteered to lead a composting educational event for the community. Educating the community is completely new to me! I wanted to try it and see how I could make a difference!
SDG 6
I will call my elected officials to ask about what they are doing regarding water issues in my region.
SDG 6
I will save up to 6 gallons (23 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers. Tip: Use a timer to practice or count to 60 a few times.
I will try a new vegan or vegetarian recipe and share how it turns out on the Ecochallenge feed, or with family and friends.
SDG 10
Each day, I will track my purchases to identify my spending habits. This will allow me to see what purchases can be reduced.
SDG 7
I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.
SDG 15
On average, a tree absorbs 10 kilograms (22 pounds) of carbon dioxide yearly during the first 20 years. To do my part, I will plant 5 trees in my community, public parks, or backyard.
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?
