"learn & live the ecochallenge"
Walkable Cities
I will take a walk for 10 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.
I will calculate the carbon emissions associated with my household and consider how different lifestyle choices could reduce our carbon footprint and our impact on the environment.
Telepresence, High-Speed Rail
Instead of traveling by plane, I will find an alternative way to accomplish the goals of an upcoming trip (i.e. telepresence, vacation locally).
Organizations have a responsibility to make sustainable business decisions. To understand how to improve sustainable practices, it’s important to start with understanding the current impact. I will share the Tradewater Business Carbon Calculator with my organization.
Temperate Forest Restoration
I will plant 1 tree(s) in my community, public parks, or backyard.
Ocean Power
I will spend at least 30 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of wave and tidal energy.
Health and Education
I will spend at least 180 minutes learning more about the barriers to women's equal participation and representation around the world.
All Electricity Solutions
I will spend at least 15 minutes researching other Drawdown Electricity Solutions.
Methane Digesters
I will watch a video about methane digesters (also commonly known as anaerobic digesters).
Geothermal Power
I will spend at least 30 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of geothermal energy and consider investing in this technology.
I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.
I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 4 cups of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.
Health and Education
I will connect with a local nonprofit working on issues affecting women, girls, and/or trans/nonbinary people in my community, and find out how I can get involved or become a member.
I will tend to a garden, or prepare for one, each day using sustainable gardening practices.
Multiple Transportation Solutions
I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips, and I will only use muscle-powered transportation for all other trips.
