    It's the little things, I guess! When I bring in unused water from the gym, I use it to water the plants. I've been trying to recycle everything and hoping that it makes its way to recycle downstream.

    I'm lucky that Denver is a walk-able city. Walked to several destinations this weekend instead of using my car. I am really thinking about it now.

    I had never heard of silvopasture prior to signing up for the challenge.  My understanding is that a silvopasture provides land for grazing animals in addition to timber for industry. Both the timber and the animals are for commercial use, not just long term grazing and plant growth.
