Coffee and cocoa are major contributors to deforestation, and my diet is full of both. Going forward, I can only purchase ethically sourced/produced coffee and chocolate.

Fossil fuels have an ENORMOUS carbon footprint. A simple Google search can tell one more about the short and long-term effects of these as well as other materials that have a large carbon footprint. 

A sustainable community, in my mind, is one where people consciously make choices that are better for the environment. In order to achieve this, more people would need to acknowledge and accept that climate change is real and put in an effort to make more eco-friendly choices. 

Unplug things from the wall, use more natural sunlight instead of relying on lightbulbs, go for walks outside versus a gym.

A sustainable community would give back an equal amount of what they take. A lot of human perception and culture would need to drastically change.

Set a timer for showers, hand-wash dishes versus using a dishwasher, turn faucets off when not directly using.

I have done what I can to not destroy the Earth at a faster pace.

Cost efficiency is always a good motivator for anyone, and this just happens to improve the quality of Earth as well!
