    I’d love to find a vehicle that is better for environment and doesn’t require gas and need to be dependent on Middle East.

    I love walking and biking and not being stuck in local traffic
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Smaller Portions
    Fun fact: Your brain and stomach register feelings of fullness after about 20 minutes of eating. 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 out of eating smaller portions?
