I planted some flowers, picked up trash, and my friend lacy drew pretty pictures everywhere with chalk paint.
Modal Description
Watch the short video below to learn the basics.
You'll be an Drawdown EcoChallenge expert in no time!
#8 Solar Farms
I will use my spending power to reward companies leading in purchasing green energy and incentivize others to invest more in green energy.
#34 Biomass
I will spend at least 20 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of biomass.
#4 Plant-Rich Diet
I will source 30 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.
#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.
#37 Mass Transit
I will improve a bus stop in my neighborhood by posting the stop schedule, adding seating or shelter, adding art or flowers, picking up litter, or implementing some other small improvement.
