Elena Lake

I will keep a daily log of food I throw away during the EcoChallenge, either because it went bad before I ate it, I put too much on my plate, or it was scraps from food preparation.

I will donate to Cool Effect's cookstove projects or another nonprofit that installs clean cookstoves in low-income countries.

I will use smaller plates and/or serve smaller portions when dishing out food.

I will commute by bike 10 mile(s) per day and avoid sending up to 7.34 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

I will not travel for meetings and will instead conduct them virtually.

I will spend at least 10 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of wave and tidal energy.

I will watch a video about methane digesters (also commonly known as anaerobic digesters).

If I buy a plane ticket, I will purchase a carbon offset.

I will spend at least 10 minutes learning more about the need for family planning globally.

I will spend at least 10 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of Micro Wind.

I will spend at least 10 minutes learning more about the energy generation potential of geothermal energy and consider investing in this technology.

I will spend at least 20 minutes researching other Drawdown Electricity Generation Solutions.
