SHARED RESPONSIBILITY (PLUS BONUS POINTS). Taking action to protect our planet is part of my social responsibility. As cohabitants of the earth, each of us has a fair share of keeping it sustainable for us today and future generations.
And taking part in Ecochallenge not only provides the opportunity to fulfill the responsibility and learn more about conservation but also makes the journey fun and exciting!

We had a plant powered happy hour today with a plant-based charcuterie board, local kombucha and we traded plant cuttings and seeds!

I bike commute to work 8 miles roundtrip daily... also replaced the front exhaust oxygen sensor on my car (which I rarely use).

On weekends I carry an 'extend-a-claw' and a large dog-food bag to collect litter while I walk wherever my dog wants to go (~2 miles)

Great bonus on 4/28: found (on curbside) and rescued free succulents, soil, and plastic planters

As we come to the end of Earth Month, I feel fulfilled in the positive impacts I've made for the planet this month, and motivated to make sure that this month is not the last month that I live with my environmental footprint in mind. Thank you, WSP, for getting involved in such a wonderful initiative as the EcoChallenge!

Sometimes I'm out hiking, and I come across mylar ballons that have flown out into the mountains. I pick them up and dispose of them correctly. They are just some of the things I find when out hiking. I try to pack any trash I find out in nature.

What a great challenge! I made several easy switches to make small differences in my impact.
