Matthew Walrath

I will enjoy 2 meatless or vegan meal(s) each day of the challenge.

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 commute by bike 5 mile(s) per day and avoid sending up to 3.1 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

I will contact 1 elected officials to voice my opinion on the importance of restoring farmland in my region, including both public and private land.

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

I will replace manual thermostats with smart ones.
