    I learned that I want to keep going for the rest of the year with my own family and see if I or my wife is the most eco-friendly. Is there a way to do that on a smaller scale?

      I found this! https://www.oroeco.com/ I would like to do the same, and not sure the best way to track it (I wish the EcoChallenge had an extension feature). I haven't tried the app, but it might be a good start?

    I didn't realize how many bulbs I still had that were incandescent. 22! (it was the bathroom vanity mirrors x3)

      Isn't it interesting what you learn when you pause and look around? I learned I had more insulation than I thought in some places and NONE where I had assumed there was some.
