Energy Education Squad

How is everyone doing with their daily challenges? We are are the home stretch. Did anyone check out the other resources or sign up for personal challenges?

The foodprint exercise upsets me because I eat a lot of Avocados and Bananas, neither of which can be sourced locally as far as I know. How can I live without guac and smoothies?

I was able to receive a free eco nest thermostat through energy trust of Oregon that we just had installed with a new high efficiency furnace. I like to watch and see how it learns our daily patterns and builds a schedule around them.

Day 1 and I remembered to login. I'm calling that a win!
