Quinn Schwabauer

I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.

I will watch a video about methane digesters (also commonly known as anaerobic digesters).

I will spend at least 15 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of wave and tidal energy.

When they are available, I will purchase products made from bamboo instead of wood, plastic, or metal.

I will recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.

I will spend at least 60 minutes researching how to properly dispose of bioplastics in my city and share this information with 10 friends, family and/or colleagues.

I will spend at least 30 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will spend at least 30 minutes researching the impact of my diet to see how it contributes to deforestation.

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.
