    The ecochallenge was very fun. When I didn't use the plastic straws I thought a lot about the animals I was saving. I got to see the world around me better. Also when I did not use a plastic bottle it was cool but sometimes I had to take a little sip. Only taking the 5 minute showers i save a lot of water. Also going for a daily walk really was fun and cool.

    Using a reusable water bottle was easy and helpfull. If everyone used a reusable water bottle the world will be a lot more cleaner.

    It was easy all you had to do is drink from the cup. After I did this I felt very good.
