Christin's actions
Transportation
Just Drive Less
I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips.
Waste
Personal Waste Audit
I will collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash with me to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.
Waste
Recycle all Recyclable Materials
I will recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.
Waste
Find Local Recycling Depots
I will find out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.
Waste
Use Reusable Bags
I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.
Waste
Use a Reusable Mug
I will avoid sending 2 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day.
Waste
Choose Two-Sided Printing
I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper per day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided at work.
Waste
Use a Reusable Water Bottle
I will keep 2 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream.
Simplicity
Support a Sharing Economy
I will create or support a sharing economy with family, friends, and neighbors.
Create Your Own Action
I won't eat cheese for 2 weeks.
I will keep a completely cheese-less diet for 2 weeks. Cheese is a top contributor of greenhouse gases, up with beef and pork. I already only eat beef and pork occasionally, but my cheese consumption is pretty high.
Participant Feed
Reflection, encouragement, and relationship building are all important aspects of getting a new habit to stick.
Share thoughts, encourage others, and reinforce positive new habits on the Feed.
To get started, share “your why.” Why did you join the challenge and choose the actions you did?

Christin Anderson 10/20/2016 6:48 PMI built a volunteer network for the UAF FreeStore, a free swap site where people can donate things they don't need and take what they do for free. Also created two flyers and scheduled a mending workshop to teach people how to fix things instead of throwing them away. -
