October 13 at 5:43 PMThis has been the most important challenge I think I have partaken in so far. My family and I were going through the process of Hospice with my Grandfather, saying goodbye and unfortunately we had to bury him this week. I have been overwhelmed emotionally and mentally. There have been many rough days but this challenge helped me find a small...

October 3 at 7:46 PMWe use natural gas in my home. Since I have a large family, it is more difficult to make sure everyone is being proactive to conserve energy. I will aim to be more sustainable when using the heating system for this winter. By using less energy, my household reduces its carbon footprint which ultimately lowers emissions being released into the...

October 3 at 7:41 PMThis has always been an issue of mine, this October for Sustainability month I want to really try and get into the habit of taking faster showers.

The challenge helps give me that extra push to do something nice for myself. Once I get back from the walk, I can think more clearly and it really helps when doing...

October 2 at 4:00 PMI personally enjoy putting down my phone and not worrying about emails, social media, or calls. Instead I decided to learn a new language. I grabbed a language book and studied some vocabulary.

October 2 at 3:51 PMToday officially starts the October Eco-Challenge! I hope everyone has picked out their daily challenges and is excited to start a friendly competition with the RU faculty! Let's all do our best!

October 1 at 7:31 PMToday I made a simple stir fry. With mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, broccoli and few other veggies. I found it incredible that it was not too difficult to remain zero waste with my ingredients. I researched and found smart techniques to saving the additional remains of veggies to make vegetable stock or soup. I am planning on using this technique...
