End of Echochallenge

I enjoyed this Ecochallenge with all of you. I just want to share a quick Interesting Fact.

Most people think that fat is what contributes to high cholesterol levels. According to Dr. Bobby Price cholesterol is caused by sugar. Most Americans eat 152 1bs of sugar per year. Imagine that is the size of a grown women or man. Excess sugar will be converted into cholesterol. Cholesterol is in every cell of the body.

Consider: What can I do today to decrease my sugar intake?

Ok, it is the voting count down. Pray over this election! I pray over all of the elections TAKE YOUR SOLES TO THE POLLS. Voting effects lots of things. Continue to encourage your family and friends to vote. Stay informed on as many items as possible. That is the key to sustainability being informed of the problems, so that we can work towards a solution. Working together does not mean we agree on all things, but it can mean we can make processes to handle the issues at hand. Climate change is a huge issue. Yes, in MI on yesterday it was 80 degrees. That is Florida weather! I love it but yes it scares me that we have had 2 feet of snow at this time when I was younger. Find out the item on your ballot about climate control investigated it and vote to what speaks to your values.

This challenge was tougher for me. I wasn't able to check in each day and due to weather conditions and personal reasons I didn't have as much time available to prioritize meeting my selected actions. Need to set new goals for making more of these items a priority to build better default behaviors.

Good morning Echochallengers.

I want to thank the members in my group on the Credit team for joining this challenge. Yes, of course, I think my presentation at one of our group meetings encouraged them, but I know the truth. They cared enough to take the time to be a part in making a different. We only had two days to go but sharing the email send about the big finish made me realize that once again I can truly say I enjoyed the process. This is our group at Forgotten Harvest is a non-profit food rescue organization that collects food that would otherwise go to waste and delivers it free of charge to organizations feeding the hungry in Metro Detroit. In 2015, the nonprofit distributed more than 40 million pounds of food to more than 260 emergency food provided to the community.Great Job Comerica's. Now go out and change the world!

This has been an exciting project. Behavior changes are not always easy but very necessary. As we take small steps to enhance our lives let us continue to share our actions and plans with others. Suggest to your team mate to volunteer. Ask them what they are contributing to the environment (good or bad) to improve it or harm it. Let us stay hopeful and on track with doing our part to make others aware of sustaining our air, water and land.
