Carlisle Eco-Challenge 2024

Looking forward to having a productive weekend and keeping up with my daily actions.

I did a little decluttering this evening. The I'm removing from our home went to recycling. Nothing to the landfill. I also did a couple full loads of laundry and hung them inside. I've basically stopped using my dryer to conserve energy and save money. I'll run the dishwasher tomorrow when I have a full load.

I saw on the new this evening that a company in California is making environmentally friendly coffee cups with a 3D printer. They use sand, water & salt to make them. It only takes 30 seconds to make these reuseable cups.

This has been a wonderful Month and am excited to continue my learning more thru the year. This journey will not end here.

Did you know that Earth Day was inspired by college students? The date, April 22, was strategically chosen to fall between spring break and final exams, aiming to maximize student participation. It seems even our planet’s celebrations are subject to the college calendar.

I ordered some seeds earlier this week. They came today so I'll be planting them this weekend.

I'm happy to be working for a company who is named one of America's Climate Leaders.

Here are somethings to not put in your compost pile: meat, dairy, oils or grease, pet waste, coated or shiny paper, chemically treated yard waste, plastic, meat bones, metal, fish or fish scraps and glass.

Colorado weather this time of year is a delight, could be rain, snow, wind, heat. dress from any occasion, layers upon layers.

5 more days to go. Is 2000 points reachable?
