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?

REFLECTION QUESTION
Waste Choose Two-Sided Printing

Choosing two-sided printing can be an easy adjustment on your computer settings. How can you help others make this same switch? Can it be encouraged company wide?

I chose this action because I see the paper waste in offices and it is over the top. Hundreds of sheets of papers are thrown in the trash every week and double sided printing saves paper waste and money. Being conscious of this keeps me aware to save in any way that I can. This challenge went well. I have been doing it off and on or whenever possible, but now I will continue to print two-sided more often.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Food Plant an Herb Garden

Consider the ways you can garden: a plot of land? a patio container? hanging basket? windowsill gardens? What would work best for your living situation and lifestyle?

I have tried and did all of the above. Having a large property allowed me to actually create a permaculture garden. This will change this summer, as we are downsizing, so patio containers is the way I will go.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Nature Go for a Daily Walk

How do you experience your neighborhood or city differently when walking instead of driving?

Walking [my dog] is a great way to see your neighbors and meet new ones. Dog walkers have a special connection and the majority of the neighbors that I have met were in that way. I try to walk everyday that the weather is cooperating.

Hi everyone. For my eco challenges I chose from three categories: food, nature, and waste. Under food I plan and actually have already started an herb garden. Fresh herbs are the best. For nature, a 30 minute (at least) daily walk is on my agenda. I currently try to do this, but this challenge will motivate me to do it everyday. And lastly, waste. Since I work in an office in a school, we print a lot and use a lot of paper. I will pledge to print double sided as often as possible to save on paper.
