While reading Activist Mommy’s blog, I came across this 2 week Eco Challenge:
To complete the challenge, read EcoStreet every day for the next 14 days and take up our daily challenge to go green.
The challenges are individual actions that you can take to go green. None of them with involve spending masses of money, in fact, many of the challenges will save you money.
Excellent, I will post the challenge and how I do each day, wish me luck…
Day 1: We challenge you to start using a refillable bottle and fill up with tap water
Ah heck, I’ve failed before I’ve started. We have a “boil water’ notice in Galway because of parasites in the water. I don’t want to take the chance while breastfeeding babypixie, so unfortunately it’s bottled water for me!
If you’re interested in our so-called “Water Crisis”, have a read of galwaywantswater.com where the count currently stands at 154 days without clean drinking water!!
Day 2: Dry your laundry in the open air
Done, it involves a lot of looking out the window for the “scattered showers” we’re experiencing today, but it’s breezy and sunny so they are drying nicely…
Stay tuned for day 3…
