    All three of my pledges are daily challenges. Those being, One meatless vegetarian or vegan meal a day, trying to eat 4 cups of fruit or vegtables, and traveling 5 miles by bus a day. The meatless one was easy enough, I just began eating eggs in the morning without and bacon or sausage with a banana. In order to fufill the cups of fruit/veggies I began to cook all my meals at home. I started making rice based meals such as beans and rice or dirty rice with peas, carrots, corn, ect. The one that I struggle with the most is the bus travel. While I don't drive I have gotten rides places in the past which was much more convienient. Shifting to only the bus has been a bit of a struggle as the bus schedules can be quite inconvinent for my schedule and add half an hour or so to my commute. But alas, these sacrifices must be made for the planet.
