You'll be an Earth Month Ecochallenge: Drawdown expert in no time!
Sometimes protecting nature requires feeling connected to nature. I will invest 120 minutes in exploring and appreciating a natural area in my region, whether a forest, wetland, coastal area, or somewhere else.
Reduced Food Waste
I will keep a daily log of food I throw away during Earth Month Ecochallenge, either because it went bad before I ate it, I put too much on my plate, or it was scraps from food preparation.
Forest Protection
I will contact 5 congress people or representatives to advocate for public policy that protects forests and the enforcement of existing anti-logging laws, as well as the rights of local people to protect and restore the land in their communities.
Multiple Solutions
I will spend at least 5 minutes learning about green gentrification and how it relates to city planning for climate action.
Refrigerant Management
I will explore the interactive map in the links below to find a supermarket that does not use HFC refrigerants near my home.
Biochar Production
I will spend 5 minute(s) learning about biochar and how it can help sequester carbon.
Methane Digesters
I will watch a video about methane digesters (also commonly known as anaerobic digesters).
Peatland Protection and Rewetting
I will spend 10 minutes researching the environmental benefits of peatlands and what is being done around the world to conserve and restore them.
Reduced Food Waste
I will spend at least 5 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.
Reduced Food Waste
I will use smaller plates and/or serve smaller portions when dishing out food.
