This was a great inspiration and opportunity to learn more about what I can do to improve my footprint. I hope everyone enjoyed the challenge and we can all inspire others be conscious of our actions. Cheers Everybody!!!

Did you know, the new season of Handmaid's Tale addresses women's access to birth control independent of their husband's knowledge and permission? #nowyouknow

This was a great challenge! I learned a lot of new things, and think some of these habits (being conscious of palm oil in my diet and products, and eating less meat) will stick. I am still trying to start using a compost/food waste collection service, but approval from my HOA is slow-going... hopefully I can start this soon!

Taking the daily recycling challenge really made me more conscious of my purchasing and sorting both at home and work during the challenge. I'm committed to keeping up my recycling diligence! 

All of those resources listed are very important to me!

I think people eat meat because they are not introduced to more creative meals and foods. Vegan is delicious when done right!

I shared this knowledge with a friend who was very much in need of the information!

Many girls in developing countries are malnourished because their brothers are given higher priority. Perhaps we can help by funding schools to feed them when their families do not have the means. This brings them to school, takes part of the burden off the families, and then the educated girl will be in a better position to help her family...

The better question would be,  "Why do men not invest more in their families and communities?"  Are they unaware of how their actions affect their loved ones? How do we raise boys to be better men?

Anything out of balance cannot last. Balance allows the natural cycles to continue and maintain life.
