Currently, my EcoChallenge is going great. I spent a lot of time learning about rainforest-friendly foods and how certain foods contribute to deforestation, and I spent time exploring new areas. I just got back from spending time outside, exercising and collecting chestnuts. It was really enjoyable. It's only too bad that I haven't done more and that I didn't do more in the past. 
I want to see what everyone else on my team has been doing. Let's see.... :)

Unfortunately, I started pretty late today. I need to start sooner, for sure. I didn't accomplish any one-time or daily actions, today, because I spent a lot of time learning about rainforest-friendly foods and it took longer than I anticipated. I spent about 45 minutes learning, and I would like to keep learning tomorrow. I really enjoyed learning, and I sent a link for bird-friendly coffee to a coffee-loving family member. You should consider researching Smithsonian's amazing bird-friendly coffee certification. It protects birds and the rainforests they live in.

I got onto the EcoChallenge too late today. I hope that it will be different this weekend, and it will probably be different tomorrow, as I have more time. 
In the evenings, I usually spend a lot of time relaxing in front of the television. The weather is getting colder, but I will have to see when I start watching television, to see if I couldn't go outside for a bit instead. And how much time do I have in the afternoon to use as I like? Because then it's also a great time to go outdoors.
I'll have to talk to my family about local voting, as I'm new to the area, and I have "nature ballot" on my list of actions. Speaking of actions, what actions have you chosen? What are you excited about? What are you a bit more reluctant about? What will be easy and what is going to be more challenging (way more or a little bit more?)?

I joined the EcoChallenge late because there was an event the first week and then it was very busy. It would have been great if I'd have joined sooner. I hope to begin my actions this week. I hope to ask my family members questions about the household to help with the actions, and I'll ask to join my family on walks. I also would like to make time to learn the things that I need to learn. Lots to do in moving forward! It all will begin with communicating: Today before we relax I need ten minutes to research this topic...Please remind me to do ---...Do you know what kind of --- we have in our house?...Do you know about ---?...Will you watch this documentary with me this weekend?
