About the Challenge
In this friendly competition, you’ll connect with other teams, share your progress in the social feed, earn points for taking action, and watch the impact you make add up in realtime! The EcoChallenge website guides you through ways to avoid plastic on an everyday basis, offering tips and encouragement throughout the process. Choose ‘everyday’ or ‘one-time’ actions from a collection of 65+ suggested actions, or get creative and create your own plastic-free actions! Make sure to check in each day of the challenge to ensure that your actions are tallied in our collective impact and that you score points for every action completed.

See how four weeks of learning and action can add up to a lifetime of positive change for you, your community, and the planet!
