    Keep windows and shades closed on hot days, turn fan on, stay down stairs where it is cooler

    Last day to earn- remember if you missed a day, you could go back- up to 3 days in the past!

    I love the opportunity to concentrate on achieving specific items. Having individual tasks makes supporting sustainability and improving our environment more realistic for me to follow through.

    We do have a pollinator habitat in our yard, neighborhood, and community especially with the lakes and natures flowering plants.

    I notice I am conscious of the actions and am intentional about taking action but do not always have the time to check in daily.

    We can be conscious to close doors, windows, and garage doors each day to keep our homes more efficient (heating and cooling).

      I just turned off our heat and am going to hold off for as long as possible. Wearing extra layers when it is cool and opening windows when it is hot.
