I agree with your post. If there is no balance in the world then it would be not only filthy but inhabitable.
Modal Description
Watch the short video below to learn the basics.
You'll be an Campus Ecochallenge expert in no time!
I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 15 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.
I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.
Cheap, single-use items and disposable packaging end up blowing around as litter more often in poor and POC-majority neighborhoods. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate.
An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 3 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.
I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.
I will spend 60 minutes researching environmental justice and environmental racism concerns in my region, who is affected by them, and local initiatives to address these concerns.
I will enjoy 3 meal(s) cooked with organic ingredients each day.
I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 1 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.
I will avoid wasting water while waiting for the shower or sink to heat up.
I will watch 1 documentary(ies) about food sovereignty: the right of local peoples to control their own food systems including markets, ecological resources, food cultures and production methods.
I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.
I will create or support a sharing economy with family, friends, neighbors, or classmates.
I will keep track and reduce my consumption of refined sugars, including sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.
I will spend 30 minutes researching toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home or dorm room.
I will use the resource links provided below and spend 30 minutes learning about the native populations that lived in my area prior to colonization, and what I can do to support those that still exist.
I will learn about sustainable fashion and begin trying to practice it in my own life.
Reflection, encouragement, and relationship building are all important aspects of getting a new habit to stick.
Share thoughts, encourage others, and reinforce positive new habits on the Feed.
To get started, share “your why.” Why did you join the challenge and choose the actions you did?
