Grace's actions

Waste

Recycle Everything I Can

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will research and recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community, making sure to not contaminate recyclables with non-recyclables.

    I think the eco challenge is great!  I have done everything on my list already, some I didn't even mean to do, I just did them.  I got 15 minuets of 
    exercise by walking my dog, at least everyday it wasn't raining. I went for daily walks by doing the same thing.  I timed my showers and each time I only took 4:43!  When I left rooms, I turned off the lights.  Finally, the thing I always really enjoy, I like to build diaramas, as I was out of all my new foam board, I used old moving boxes that we had lying around!  I love building things!
