    My campus eco-challenge has been going good the past couple week. Although I don't really know how to work the website and check of things I have done, it is still helpful to log on here every so often and remind myself of my daily goals.

    So far my campus eco-challenge has been going well, I have been starting to see how the impact of me participating in some of the challenges I chose has benefitted me, in terms of saving money on electricity bills and also the environmental impact it has.

    My campus eco challenge is going great so far! I really enjoy nature and providing for/protecting our environment and surrounding, so I feel like the eco challenge is a great activity for me.

    I really like the eco challenge. But I just realized that some days when I check off my completed challenges I wasn’t actually signed in🤭😟

    Everything but the bread was grown or raised by us. Fresh pesto, fresh mayo, bacon, kale, tomato, and an egg. A new take on the  BLT.  If you haven’t tried it you need to, the pesto is a game changer. K Heiser

    Name some of the human activities impacting the health of water systems, both locally (your watershed) and globally (freshwater and oceans). What can you do to improve the health of water systems?

    Shutting the water off when brushing your teeth. Using minimal amounts of water to clean things or substituting cleaning materials.

    Speaking of working at Banana Republic (Gap INC), we get almost 10,000 cardboard boxes and 100,000 plastic packages EVERY SINGLE WEEK. The store DOESN"T recycle nationally because it "costs too much". I met with many higher-ups in the mall to mandate EVERY store must recycle. I also met with management of BRF to make them understand the damage they are doing. This entire thing makes me so upset. I'm aiming to continue pushing upper management until it is a sustainable company.

    I work at Gap INC. and I know that the company is very problematic for fast fashion and children labor. I don't know what to do about working there. I have been for 4 years. I hate working for a company that causes so much harm to our planet.

    I recently purchased a bike! Now, I will be able to get places without taking a car.
