REFLECTION QUESTION
Transport

Half of all trips made in the US are three miles or less; 72% of them are driven. Private vehicles account for 60% of trips of a mile or less. Do you often drive short distances instead of biking or walking? If so, how might incorporating an electric bike into your lifestyle help you make more climate-friendly choices?

IT will help because it doesn't release greenhouse gases into the environment. Also it's more fun.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Food

Producing food that goes uneaten squanders many resources—seeds, water, energy, land, fertilizer, hours of labor, financial capital. Which of these kinds of waste most motivates you to change your behavior regarding food waste? Why?
lev gorelik 4/03/2019 8:52 AM
Wasting food is not good because there is other people that need it. When you waste food you create greenhouse gases because the trucks need to drive it to the dump, and if there is less trash, there is less greenhouse gases being release.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Transport

How has your access to various kinds of transporation throughout your life influenced your current attitudes about transportation and your transportation behavior?
lev gorelik 4/03/2019 7:29 AM
yes, i think that public transportation is a good idea because people don't release greenhouse gases by driving their own vehicles. If there is less vehicles being used, there is less waste.
