REFLECTION QUESTIONFood Learn the Truth About Expiration DatesHow does knowing the difference between use by, sell by, and best by dates empower you to make better decisions?
Keri Fong 4/15/2019 2:30 PMDifferentiating between use by, sell by, and best by dates provides more clarification as to when food items are still good, should be used soon, or discarded. It helps individuals better plan out their meals with the materials they have available; and therefore, less wasted products in the end. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONMaterials Recycle Everything I CanHow could you incorporate other "R's" -- reduce, reuse, refuse, repair, repurpose, etc. -- into your lifestyle? How does considering implementing these "R's" make you feel?
Keri Fong 4/14/2019 1:01 AMI feel like for me, my bad habits with recycling comes from laziness to walk down to the recycle bin in the parking garage. I have tried to group recyclable items together to take them down altogether and just the thought that sometimes I throw them down the trash chute out of pure laziness makes me want to make a change. -

Keri Fong 4/10/2019 7:21 AMI feel like maybe a lot of this has to do with the way people are raised and availability as well as lack of awareness -
