i have noticed that when i am eating lots of fruits and veggies i crave less sugar, and am more energized

I think the idea of seeds being wasted motivates me a lot. As well as hours of labor. I love going around in nature and looking at plants, plants are one of my favorite things. It is sad to know that a lot of foods that are grown will not be used to create new plants. There is also a lot of labor that goes into producing food. People work their whole lives to grow food and it's sad to know that a lot of that work will end up in landfills.

Understanding that the vast majority of foods are still good, even past the dates on it, is very interesting. It helps me understand that you should be relying on your sense more than the dates on the package.

I cooked shrimp rice bowls with seaweed last night and it turned out really good. It was very simple, just grilled shrimp, steamed rice, seaweed sheets, and sauces.

I can make sure that I properly utilize any paper that I have as well as recycling it after I do not need it anymore. I could also buy recycled paper for others that I know use paper a lot, like teachers and peers.
