Watch the short video below to learn the basics.
You'll be an The People's Ecochallenge 2024 expert in no time!
Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 45 minutes each day.
I will research the social or environmental issues in my community that matter to me and tell 7 friends and/or colleagues each day about what I learn. I will also share what I learn on the Ecochallenge feed.
I will replace 45 minutes each day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.
I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 10 minutes each day to reflect on things important to me.
I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 2 cups of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.
I will calculate my Water Footprint to learn about my tap water use and "virtual water" use.
I will spend at least 5 minutes touring (virtually or in person) a local dump/transfer station, material recovery facility, and/or landfill to learn about our local waste and waste recovery streams.
I will calculate my digital carbon footprint and take steps to reduce my CO2 emissions.
