    Incredible to think that as a team we have saved close to 6k gallons of water in just over a week! Just to show that little actions by a collective group of individuals can lead to big impacts.

    Crazy to think that by shutting of the water while I brush my teeth has already saved up to 40 gallons of water!

    I chose to focus on water for this years challenge, because all to often we think of water as an infinite resource due to how easily accessible it is in our everyday lives. When in reality it is not an infinite resource and yet is extremely vital to life here on earth. So why not try to preserve it!
