    Learned about what climate anxiety is today. Also learned how it is defined, who and when the phrase was "coined".  Interesting topic, looking forward to learning more about it.

    Was not aware sustainable fashion existed until I saw a commercial on tv recently for a biodegradable tennis shoe which has been developed, but not yet quite ready for public sale.  Shortly after that commercial, I saw this challenge opportunity.  Researched it more and it is indeed an interesting topic.
