    I feel very satisfied this event. I believe that even though I had less daily goals, I did more this time around. And I got to include my children, which made it even better!

    I was very happy to be able to plant a tree this year with my boys! They loved it! They were so proud and my oldest wanted to go outside and watch it grow.

    This challenge is going well, I'm really making an effort to impact the environment positively.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Reduce Animal Products
    In your opinion, what contributes to people in North America eating more meat than any other countries? What does this say about North American values and ways of living?

    I like not having to go out as often and use the gas. It helps tremendously with cost savings. Also, it helps the environment. Hopefully my kids pay attention to these lessons and use them to make the world a better place.

    Land Use Research Peatlands
    Much of Indonesia's peatlands have been drained so they could be replaced with palm oil or pulp and paper plantations. How can you make choices that help to protect peatlands, even if you live far away from one?

    So, peatlands are a valuable resource that help to fight CO2 emissions. Can't we artificially create some in communities?

    Still keeping my miles low. Today I plan on only going to work and home.

    I mean, this challenge is pretty easy for me. I rarely eat meat anyway. I'm not opposed to it, but sometimes I have 3 meals a day with no meat.

    Still waiting on my brother to pick up the refrigerator so that we can recycle it.

    So, before this challenge, I didn't even know what peatlands were. I'd heard of peat bogs, but only in a minor context.
