Cleveland Clinic

To be very aware of what I do on a day to day basis. From recycling to brushing teeth, my daily routines have changed. I also used the Ecochallenge to jump start self health care by scheduling Dr. appointments and getting on track health wise. Thanks for the opportunity.

Plant based diets are good for treating various preventable diseases and also good for the environment. They reduce cholesterol, hypertension, BMI and greenhouse gases. It is a win-win.

The climate crisis is not a future problem. Millions of people are dying now. I can switch to renewable energy sources. I can also drive less.

Whole Foods means less processing — good for the environment and my body!

Ahhhh, it's the end of the challenge - I got busier with my workload so wasn't able to keep up and do my check-ins regularly this past week. I appreciate having this challenge because sometimes we need the added push to make small but important steps to help the environment!

Hi Ecochallengers! Last day! Hope everyone had fun, reached their goals, and learned something new this month! See everyone next time! :-) Mary

To bad I realized it after the date was locked out, that I could go in and a document a day later. The first weekend I had missed, and tried to document on Monday was locked out. Later I missed documentation and I was able to go in on past dates. That was a nice option.

It's hard to believe I have made such an impact in just one month. Thanks to this challenge, I have created some new habits going forward. :)

We did a great job, congrats to my fellow team members! I joined because I try to reduce waste and improve the quality of the quantity of our (shared) resources; I've always thought that I should leave the planet better off than the way it was when I got here, and I take every opportunity to address and reinforce that mission. Great job,...

Finishing out strong with the last day of the eco challenge. It’s been such a positive experience.
