The Plastic-Free Challenge goes live tomorrow! This means:
- You can start reporting your actions. Log into your dashboard to mark your actions as completed. Whenever you complete a daily action - remember this might be daily, weekly, or a few days here and there - log on and mark it complete so your impacts start to add up. Also make a plan for when you'll complete your one-time actions - the challenge will go by faster than you think!
- The impact calculator will also be live! Most actions have an associated impact, and you can watch them grow as the challenge goes on. You can view impacts from yourself, your team, or everyone in the challenge.
- People can still join! You can continue to recruit team members throughout the whole challenge. It’s never too late to join. Remember to visit the resources section for tips on inviting and collaborating with team members.
- Keep an eye on your inbox for our regular resource emails. Week 1 will focus on the basics of plastics and plastic recycling.
