The challenges I choose to undertake were:

To use less electric lights

To not wear make up

No buying new clothes, only used.

To get no new plastic bags

and

To recycle EVERYTHING I can

The low impact challenge has turned out to be much simpler than I had originally thought. I had made the decicion in my head that it was going to be terrible, and i was going to get fed up and stop but it has been nothing of the sort. Yesterday my dad sent me into stop & shop to get a few groceries and as soon as i walked in i had to turn around BECAUSE I FORGOT MY BAGS. But it wasn't a hassle at all. That made me think about how ridiculous people are for not bringing there bags, it took me an extra minute to grab them, and it saved so much waste. :[
