  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Materials Recycle Everything I Can
    How 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?

    By incorporating the R's into my life I could Reduce the amount of unnecessary waist, reuse any and all plastic containers or other materials, repair anything that needs fixing instead of throwing it away into the garbage and repurposing any and all other things that could just use a fresh start as something else or just simply be used as something different but more resourceful.

     Without the assistance of trees to help  by helping to keep it free from toxins, supplying life on Earth with nutrients and combating the negative effects of harmful gases that exist in it. Trees allow consumers to save energy, further helping to reduce the impact of the overuse of resources. Trees absorb pollutants and gases that exist in the environment.

    My attitude about public transportation is I am very positive and open to all types, if I don't have to drive, its cheaper and much better for the world for everyone to just take one bus or train then I am all for it!
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Composting
    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?

    Saneia Pedro's avatar
    Saneia Pedro 4/04/2019 3:09 PM
    Hours of labor lost is what makes me the most motivated to change my behavior because people put so much time, sweat and tears into producing our foods just so it can all get wasted in the end.
