Woke up on the last day and did not even realize it. Woke up and did my daily eco-challenge to find out it has became apart of my morning routine.

Last day of the eco challenge! I managed to cross off all of my challenges for the last day and hope to keep up some of these habits like taking shorter showers and brushing my teeth with the water off. Keeping a gratitude journal has also been really nice and I think maintaining that will help keep me from mindlessly consuming more than I need.

I really have nothing to note for the day. Talk about ending on a neutral note. I would certainly say that the things I have listed here weren't hard to pick up as constants or at least push them to be constants, so it was fun in the least.

I'm excited to reflect on my eco-challenge soon. It's been difficult at times but I've really enjoyed challenging myself and learning more about environmental safety in the process.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Water Brush My Teeth Without Running Water

What is the main water source in your region? If you don't know, how could you find out?

The city of Portland's main water source is the "Bull Run Watershed" and the "Colombia South Shore Well Field", as well as groundwater sources and creeks/springs. I did some research and found out Oregon is one of the top 10 cleanest tap water sources in the states-- due to low levels of impurities!! Surprisingly, we don't source any of our drinking water from Mt.Hood although it seems relatively close.
