REFLECTION QUESTIONMaterialsHow 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?
Suzette Bachor 4/24/2019 6:25 PMI'm finding myself correcting others more - stopping them when they throw something in the garbage that recyclable, etc. It's easy to repurpose if you feel like getting creative! -
REFLECTION QUESTIONTransportHow do your transportation choices affect your engagement in your community? Does your experience or enjoyment differ while walking, riding transit, biking or driving?
Suzette Bachor 4/24/2019 6:21 PMWalking gives the most enjoyment in my community. You notice more, see more and often stop to actually TALK to your neighbors! -
REFLECTION QUESTIONFoodDependable fresh food, supporting local farmers and building resilient communities are just a few benefits of local food systems. Which of these (or other) advantages inspire you the most?
Suzette Bachor 4/24/2019 6:19 PMThe growing of the food is an education in itself. We can teach our children about fresh food while showing them how to grow it in their own backyards.
