Small Actions Add Up to Real Change!

During the NCW EcoChallenge, we challenge you to change a habit that will benefit not only you, but also your community and the planet. You choose your challenges, then earn points for completing them, connecting with your community and sharing your story. Your points will add up to demonstrate your impact, and help your team win the NCW EcoChallenge 2019 competition.

Participants can select up to 8 “daily actions” and up to 8 “one-time actions”. The more actions you complete, the more points you earn!

Forget to take action one day? Don’t worry, you can still earn points if you go online and record the fact you DIDN’T complete any actions. Going online EVERY DAY will earn you points!

Forgot to go online one day? Don’t worry, you can go online and record the actions you missed for the past two days.

Here’s an idea of how you can earn points during the challenge.
