    eating smaller portions has helped me feel better as well, and if eating smaller portions contributes to less waste, I feel that it benefits everyone

    Taking public transportation has made me realize that is far more calming than driving myself and you are able to use this time for other productive activities while also causing less fossil fuel emissions

    I think eating less, as well as wasting less is an easy challenge that can extremely contribute to lessening climate change. Starting with a smaller portion is better than a larger portion as it allows for less waste.
