Eco Champions

There are more companies with recycling programs than I have seen in quite a while. I can't wait to get started with them since I've been using their products anyway!

You all are doing great, this is the last week of the challenge. Let's finish strong!! 

I used the Ecological Footprint Calculator and discovered if everyone lived like me, we would need 3.5 Earths. That number shocked me and motivated me to reduce my carbon impact! The first step I am going to take is reduce my meat consumption.  

This fact or estimation does not surprise me because those close to me are consistently surprised at my unwillingness to discard food when I am confident that it can be cooked or used somewhere else. I would rather use those funds for my next vacation or stay-cation.

I am enjoying all the podcasts that are out there on Apple and Sound Cloud. I feel like I am growing a lot just by the daily commute. Taking in good quality educational materials from and to work has been great.

I made the most amazing cream of mushroom soup with dairy free almond milk.  Added thyme and a splash of sherry to jazz it up.  Perfect soup for a cold day!

Being more intentional or mindful on wants versus needs. 

Enjoying the Eco Challenge! 

I watched a fabulous documentary on Netflix called Fantastic Fungi.  Not only was it beautifully photographed, but the content was super interesting.  And - my sister's friend was interviewed in the movie! https://fantasticfungi.com/
