I am going to try and continue the water catchment system I've got going on. I did it last year and kept it up for a while and then fell off the wagon. I want to try to do it for a whole year this time. It was hard to complete some of these challenges while traveling. But I did much better at turning off my computer than I thought I would. I'll keep that up for sure. It's something super easy to do every day. The Challenge went by fast, but it's always a good reminder of how to be more earth-friendly every day!
