    I have to admit it's hard juggling this page and Plastic Free July at the same time, but I'm trying my best to manage both.

      Hi Guy, I'm not sure if anyone realized that the Community Team was competing with my team, SAGE EcoLogicals, through the month of June. I wish that the communication between teams was easier on the Ecochallenge platform. Anyway, keep up the good work & have a great Plastic Free July!

      Hi Guy, can you tell your team captain(s) to accept my team's competition invitation? I got no reply from after challenging your team on June 1. Thanks!

      SAGE EcoLogicals in New Jersey is inviting you to a friendly competition through June 1-30. I hope you will accept our challenge! My team and I are looking forward to competing with you and your team. Together we will help each other to learn about the Drawdown actions and gain new sustainability habits!
