Faith Bernhardt

I will spend 10 minutes reading the Ecochallenge feed each day and giving high fives or commenting on posts by people who I don't know, but whose content inspires or interests me.

I will reduce food waste and save money by prepping for 2 meal(s) each day, only buying the ingredients I need.

I will spend 20 minutes researching toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.

I will make sure I’m registered to vote. While I’m at it, I’ll sign up to help others register too!

I will enjoy 1 meatless meals and/or 1 vegan meals each day this week.

I will spend 10 minutes learning how conflict between people impacts people + planet.

I will fix faucets or report leaky faucets to facilities that have been wasting up to 3 gallons (11 L) of water per faucet every day.

I will repair at least one item that is broken, but is repairable. This might be items like garden tools, sewing machine, small appliances, electronics, clothing, and more.

I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning, pickling, or baking bread.

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

I will plant an herb garden in my home, workplace, or dorm room.

I will get my Core Four Biometrics tests (blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar and BMI).

Organic farming practices are healthier and safer for our planet, animals, and people. I will enjoy 1 meals cooked with organic ingredients per day.

Processed foods can be less nutritious for our bodies and take more energy and water to produce, which can create more waste, pollution, and offer less benefit to our health. I will enjoy 1 meals per day free of processed foods.
