Week 1 Focus: Recycling and Composting
Start Backyard Composting
My household will set up a backyard bin to compost our fruit and vegetable scraps.
Belongings
Have a Zero-Waste Day
I will refuse all items that come in packaging for the entire day.
At Home
Hold the Mail
I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by 3.4lbs (1.5kg) a month or 41lbs (18.6kg) a year by opting into paperless billing, ending unwanted subscriptions and opting out of junk mail.
Food
Try A New Way to Prep
I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning or pickling.
Belongings
Repair Household Goods
I will repair 1 item(s) that break instead of replacing them with new items.
At Home
Complete a Waste Audit
I will conduct a waste audit - including recyclables and compostables - to understand how much waste I create and where I can reduce the most.
At Home
Make Green Cleaners
I will make 2 of my own cleaning products (cleaners, detergents, soaps) instead of buying them.
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?
