Amira Streeter 10/28/2016 5:08 PMWow!! I really enjoyed this year's EcoChallenge. There are definitely things I could work on, like taking my hot to-go mug with me to coffee shops and trying to take more walks - today was a perfect day to do that, but I was so busy running around today. Another goal could be to try to meet people within walking distance so I can drive less. Bouncing from N Portland to 82nd to downtown was not great. -
