Emilie Patterson

Each day, I will track my purchases to identify my spending habits. This will allow me to see what purchases can be reduced.

Through my Earth Month Ecochallenge feed, I will share with others an environmentally friendly habit I have cultivated.

I will use the communication methods I read about to practice effective, compassionate, and nonviolent communication with someone I interact with regularly (i.e., my roommate, parents, co-worker, partner, classmates, or children).

I will make a few homemade cleaning products.

I will carry all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash with me each day to raise my awareness of how much waste I produce.
