March 28 at 11:29 AMI would say my ecochallange is going very well. I have selected things I would like to improve on and I have been thinking about them and am planning on taking action. I think this will be a great thing to do and help motivate me to do more to help the planet.

March 11 at 9:46 AMOverall, I have learned a lot from this challenge. I have learned that the littlest changes to your daily life can make a an impact on the world. I realized that after I started taking only 5 minute showers, that a shower doesn't need to be longer than that; I was just wasting water before.
