  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Transport Try Carpooling
    List some of the places you frequent often (work, grocery store, natural areas). Could you choose one or two days a week to schedule driving with a friend, neighbor or co-worker to these places?

    I usually only go to and from school during the week. Most days, I carpool with friends so it isn't as much of a hassle for my parents to drive me everywhere.
  • 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?

    You won't have worry as much about overeating. Also you will feel better and will be able to do something active afterwards instead of feeling like a blimp.
