30 x 30 Challenge: Getting Outside

I recently read about the David Suzuki Foundation’s “30 x 30 Challenge” to encourage people to get outside.  It’s an easy concept, go outside and spend time in nature for 30 minutes a day, for 30 days.  I love the simplicity of this and thought I’d give it try! What better way to kick off the second half of 2012, than with a nature challenge?

Follow me on Twitter to get daily updates and photos from my 30 minutes in nature.  I’ll also do a weekly roundup of my photos and post them to Facebook and right here on the blog.  I’ll kick it off with June’s Nature Walk post later today!

For my Canadian readers, there is a contest associated with the 30 x 30 challenge where you can win prizes and fun stuff.  It starts today, so sign up quick if you’d like to participate!  I’m in the US, so I don’t get to participate in the official contest, but you can bet I’ll be outside anyway!

    Great idea~ I think I am going out every day, but not for 30 minutes….

    This is a cool idea, though I only made it to like, Day 4. Ah, well.
