Modal Description
Watch the short video below to learn the basics.
You'll be an Campus Ecochallenge expert in no time!
I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 133 lbs of CO2 a month and 1,600 lbs of CO2 over the course of the next year.
I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning, pickling, or baking bread.
Instead of traveling by plane, I will find an alternative way to accomplish the goals of an upcoming trip (i.e. telepresence, vacation locally).
I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by 0.11lbs (0.05kg) a day or 3.3lbs (1.6kg) a month by opting into paperless billing, ending unwanted subscriptions and opting out of junk mail.
I will make an appointment for my annual physical.
I will practice actively listening to a friend, family member, co-worker, acquaintance, or someone who I may disagree with in at least 2 conversations.
I will take a 45-minute walk outside each day.
I will de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home or dorm room.
I will save up to 8 gallons (30 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.
Reflection, encouragement, and relationship building are all important aspects of getting a new habit to stick.
