Taylor Parsons 4/24/2019 6:13 PMI also realized we can't add actions all the way back to the beginning of the challenge anymore! I biked or walked to the ferry every day, so there are some lost points there :) Good work to all who actively posted and logged their actions! -
Taylor Parsons 4/24/2019 6:12 PMI committed myself to eating vegetarian this month, motivated by the challenge. Between a trip to TX and the occasional lack of restraint, I didn't (or in TX, pretty much couldn't at a couple restaurants!) meet my goal every day. Still, I plan on carrying this forward and eating less meat or going pescatarian for a while! -
REFLECTION QUESTIONLand Use Buy BambooAre bamboo alternatives readily available in your community? If not, what are other sustainable alternatives?
Taylor Parsons 4/24/2019 6:08 PMThere are some alternatives available in my community, though likely not enough. I recently added bamboo fencing to my yard instead of wood, as I originally intended. What other bamboo alternatives can we think of?
