Ok, I have an issue with the points. As I was going through my options the past two weeks, I didn't pay attention to daily vs one-time challenges. There were many one time challenges I completed over the course of this challenge but focused more on the daily impact. After two weeks of daily check-ins, my score was a measly 165. Going through one-time challenges today that I have completed the past two weeks, my score went up 4x as my two weeks of daily challenges. That seems off. It was MUCH more difficult challenging myself every day to make the changes than to visit a farmers market to get local produce. I understand both are important, but the challenge (and the purpose behind awarding points in the first place) drives competition as a motivator. The point system, in my mind, is so very flawed and skews results so dramatically that the challenge is...well...challenging. 

this challenge made me realize how easily and quickly little actions build up to big things, hope everyone keeps up the sustainable and ecofriendly actions!!

Last day of the EcoChallenge! Didn't always finish every challenge on the list, but did at least 2 every day.

Excited for the EcoChallenge wrap up party on Tuesday (at 4:30 in Montag)! :)
