Kristen Jensen 9/29/2017 10:49 AMThe EcoChallenge platform enables our team to easily share our “aha!” moments and stories from throughout the Challenge. I encourage all of our teammates to post frequently– feed updates inspire others to take action and make a difference! -
Kristen Jensen 9/29/2017 10:46 AMCommon wisdom says it takes at least two weeks to change a habit:
if you canstick with a new behavior for 14 days in a row, you’re a lot more likely to keepit up forever. EcoChallengers share their progress and earn points for taking action. The combination of collective inspiration, camaraderie and friendly competition makes change a little easier — and a lot more fun. -
