    I will power down my computer and monitor when not using it for more than 2 hours, saving up to (1.1) lbs of CO2 per day that I do this.
  • Water

    I will replace my lawn with a drought-tolerant landscape and save the water, money, and time I used to spend cutting the grass.
  • Health
    e.  Lassahn's avatar
    I will learn about paid leave and its impact on health and wellness at a personal and societal level and how I can help advocate for paid leave in my company and at the national level.

    It went well.  I did not finish, though.  It was such a short challenge.  I learned a lot about bio digesters.  Very cool!

    It really helped with becoming more self aware of your choices, not just your individual challenge. As well has having some self care practices become priority.

    So far I am maintaining my new less-screen-time habit and making low/no waste meals from scratch at home.
