Being the change Feed

BACK TO TEAM PAGE

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?

    Hi How is everyone doing? Yesterday I shared several posts about educating women including the Ted Talk. What is everyone else doing?

    Hi 
    I live in Lincolnshire in the UK, near a little market town called Boston that some of you may have heard of. I would love to connect with other people from the UK doing the challenge. I live in the countryside on a smallholding. We have solar thermal and solar PV panels. Grow some fruit and veg. I have a green living blog. I love the idea of promoting Drawdown actions, as there is so much information about climate change but not enough people talk about the practical actions that everyone could do. For me living in rural Lincolnshire I rely on my car and can't afford an electric car. But I can afford to donate to a charity that plants trees or supports educating girls and I do buy my energy from a renewable energy supplier. 
    I look forward to getting to know more people during the challenge. Jackie

    I joined the challenge to help me keep on track with these things.  In our busy world it's so easy to forget, or plan to do it later.

    Food Keep Track of Wasted Food
    An average American throws out about 240 lbs of food per year. The average family of four spends $1,500 a year on food that they throw out. Where would you rather use this money?

    I would like to put it towards either starting a composting program in my neighborhood, or put it towards increasing self-sufficiency by putting it towards a garden, chickens, fruit trees, etc.
