    I think we need to check windows and doors to make sure they are sealed properly. This could save a lot of energy.

    Doing this challenge has made me much more aware of organic verses non organic fresh produce at the store.  I have found it most cases it isn't much more money to go with the organic. The benefits outway the extra cost anyway! :-)
