Zoe Morrison: I am taking on a year of Eco Challenges!

from 27 Sep 2013 - 27 Aug 2014 in Brighton

I have decided to take on a year of eco-challenges and will be introducing a new challenge each month over the course of the year.  To start off with I have decided to stop using shampoo. To read more about why I am doing the challenges take a look here: http://www.ecothriftyliving.com/2013/09/my-year-of-eco-challenges.html

 

Browse the DoActions and find one (or more) that suits you, then make your pledge(s). Some are really easy; others take a bit more effort.

You only pledge to do your chosen action for two months and all the information you need is provided here on The DoNation, making it really easy to complete. You'll receive a few helpful reminders and then at the end of the two months you'll be asked to confirm how you got on.

So please, get doing!

Thank you!!
