Katie Kropp

I will spend 120 learning about the past and present indigenous communities in my regions and what I can do to be supportive.

Each day, I will spend 15 minutes learning about sustainable fashion so that I can engage in this practice.

I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.

I will spend 30 minutes learning about how and where to dispose of medications and chemicals properly.

I will calculate the carbon emissions associated with my household and consider how lifestyle changes could reduce the carbon footprint and impacts on the environment.

I will visit ewg.org to learn about and use their Clean 15 and Dirty Dozen produce lists.

During the workday, I will schedule time for daily rest during work days to practice work-life balance.

I will replace 20 minute(s) per day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside exercising, enjoying the sunrise/sunset, gardening, journaling, or practicing gratitude for nature.

Throughout the day I will track my purchases and then research the companies making these goods.

I will express my love and gratitude for our planet by writing a love letter, poem, song or taking a picture. I will share it with others on my social media channels, in person, or as an Earth Month Ecochallenge feed reflection.
