I will spend at least 60 minutes learning about the need for more regenerative agriculture.

I will recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.
Food
Keep Track of Wasted Food
#3 Reduced Food Waste
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 avoid buying toxic plastics, including polycarbonate, polystyrene and polyvinyl and instead replace them with bioplastic or durable options.

REFLECTION QUESTIONTransport Use Muscle PowerHow do your transportation choices affect your engagement in your community? Does your experience or enjoyment differ while walking, riding transit, biking or driving?
Stephanie Dudek 4/04/2019 1:31 PMWhen I travel by bike I feel as though I notice my surroundings quite a bit more and feel like I am actually traveling as opposed to just appearing somewhere else. It also makes me much more aware of the seasons as I tend to notice things like what wild flowers are blooming and what birds are around. In the city I am also more likely to stop and explore place I may not if I had to look for a parking spot first. -
