Dana Bannister

I will take a walk for 30 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.

Through social media, I will raise awareness about gender inequity in education by sharing the information found in the links below.

I will cook 2 meal(s) with zero-waste each day

I will sign up for a Master Recycler/Composter program in my area.

I will keep a daily log of food I throw away during the EcoChallenge, either because it went bad before I ate it, I put too much on my plate, or it was scraps from food preparation.

I will source 50 percent of my food from local producers each day. This could include signing up for a local CSA, buying from a farmer's market, visiting a food co-op, foraging with a local group, or growing my own ingredients.

I will test drive an electric bike at a local distributor to see if it makes sense to use one in place of my car, or to extend the area I can cover by bike.

I will spend at least 60 minutes researching the impact of my diet to see how it contributes to deforestation.

I will spend at least 60 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.
