Monthly Challenges

In December 2018, we were informed that we have only about 12 years (Edit: it’s looking more like 8, recent studies find) left to turn this ship around. So much has to happen politically, but we the people also need to change habits. In January 2019 I started posting monthly challenges to introduce some sustainable lifestyle habits for you to try and that may potentially stick with you for life. Lots of little droplets make up the largest ocean.

Are you absolutely unable to do the current challenge? Or maybe you are underwhelmed with the challenge and want an extra one?

Check out the previous challenges to see if there is something you would like to try.

Do you want to set next month’s sustainability challenge?

Contact me and pitch me your challenge. It might be up next month. You can either write the whole challenge, and why we should do it, or just give me an idea for something to look into.

About me

My name is Malu. I am a conservation-ecologist currently living in Germany. I’ve always been wild about the outdoors and can spend hours looking at an insect labouring away at its daily challenges, or a bird building its nest, or … there’s just so much amazing stuff happening out there! I’m really glad you’ve made it onto this page so I can share my joy with you.

Monthly Challenges

We only have about 6 to 8 years left to turn this environmental mess of a ship around. So much has to happen politically, but the people also need to change habits and start to appreciate our environment more. So every 1st of the month I post a nature care challenge with environmentally friendly lifestyle choices of habits for you to try for 30 days and, if you like, let it stick with you for longer, maybe even for life.
