AZ vs Redwood Forest Soil:
Modal Description
Watch the short video below to learn the basics.
You'll be an Campus Ecochallenge expert in no time!
I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 15 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.
I will offer to help 2 person(s) who are in need each day.
I will not travel for meetings and will instead conduct them virtually.
I will spend at least 10 minutes assessing the vehicles used by my company or college and advocate for a purchasing policy focused on fuel-efficient vehicles.
At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 10 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard or local community garden.
I will tend to a garden, or prepare for one, each day using sustainable gardening practices.
I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.
I will host a watch party to screen a documentary about an issue that matters to me.
I will learn about sustainable fashion and begin trying to practice it in my own life.
I will collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.
If at all possible, I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.
Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 50 minute(s) each day.
An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.
I will purchase produce and meat from a local farmers market or food co-op.
I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.
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?
