    Team effort was key to the challenge. I'm proud of the Drawdown Greenbelt Team for their efforts in participating in this year's challenge. We have a great group of planet activists. We'll look forward to the challenge next time :) Yea, Drawdown Greenbelt!

    In your opinion, what contributes to people in North America eating more meat than any other countries? What does this say about North American values and ways of living?

    Cultural norms, especially during holidays when families get together, also during events surrounding funerals and other life-cycle events.

    We had our first "casualty".  Somehow we let two bags of green beans spoil.  We had to throw them away completely.  At least we were able to compost them!
