    Over the weekend I thrifted a Bamboo tray because I wanted to get something to hold my dishes. Not only was it cute but it also was more sustainable (both second hand and made of sustainable materials).

    While visiting Halloweentown in St. Helens, I supported a cute pop-up shop run by a woman selling bags, accessories, and cool magnets. I bought one of her magnets to stick on my fridge.

    I haven't checked in every day, but so far it is going great. I feel better knowing that my actions have a purpose.

    I really like the walks. one of the days I went to the zoo and that really improved my mood. I have noticed that I am able to sleep better at the end of the day when I go on walks versus when I don't. I also haven't logged all of my daily walks, but I have walked at least an hour every day.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food, Agriculture, and Land Use Reduce Food Waste
    An average American throws out about 240 lbs of food per year. The average family of four spends $1,500 a year on food that they throw out. Where would you rather use this money?

    I would rather use this money to buy a new iPad to put sheet music on rather than printing it out and using paper. I also don't like wasting food so I usually clean my plate or give it to a friend.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food, Agriculture, and Land Use Smaller Portions
    While dishing food out, we tend to load our plates with more than we need. Using smaller plates helps to mitigate this. Aside from the environmental benefits, what other benefits might come from eating/serving smaller portions?

    Eating and serving smaller portions would help with the obesity problem in America.
