Tim McNeil 9/20/2018 10:32 AMThe challenge is going well so far! I think that it is really difficult to do some of these tasks, but other tasks are just require relatively simple daily life-style changes. As of now, these are the actions that I am focused on changing. My goal as the weeks go on is to challenge myself to try and achieve one of the harder ecochallenges for that week.
