Jocelyn Chan 7/28/2020 2:12 PMHey Team!! Just 3 days left of this challenge let's finish strong! I'm already committing to picking up litter regularly on the streets and at the beach moving forward and continue with the new plastic free habits I've picked up from this eco challenge. I've also really enjoyed pushing myself to prepare and cook zero plastic waste meals and intend to continue to make more progress in the area. Mostly it involves more wholesome whole foods not only better gor my health but also for the environment. Win Win :)-
