October 26 at 12:18 PMWe have a lot of good habits for water conservation, but there is definitely room for improvement. One area that shot up our water footprint was eating meat very regularly. I will try to eat less meat, including meatless meals and incorporating more vegetables and smaller portions of meat each meal.

October 26 at 12:09 PMI was surprised to learn the sheer number of products that contain palm oil (one article said it’s in 50% of consumer products!) beyond just foods. Reading ingredient labels will definitely be a first step in awareness of which products may have palm oil. Nutella is one product I know definitely does contain palm oil, which I have seen...

October 25 at 9:54 AMThis challenge prompted me to repair several pieces of clothing that have been sitting in a pile for months (years?) because I knew if I got to it, I could fix them!

October 24 at 6:27 AMI repaired a broken Halloween animatronic that was no longer functioning by making some adjustments and stabilizing the part thaw was causing the failure. I wouldn't have thrown it away, but it's rewarding to fix something that would otherwise not live up to its full potential.

October 18 at 8:40 AMI am interested in reducing water use by using a rain barrel, especially with my goals for starting a garden next year.

October 17 at 1:41 PMI joined this group because I've always been aware of the beautiful natural resources around me. I want to be a good steward over any of the resources I have access to. That's why I love my small part of working with the NOAA community to protect our fish and waterways.

October 14 at 10:28 AMBeing constantly on screens can diminish our connection to the physical world and mindful interaction with it. I've also ben working to find activities other than screens due to the impacts on health (eyes, brain, etc.). This task has been helping me get back to reading for fun!
