    Food Whole Foods Diet
    Michael Pollan states that “it is better to pay the grocer (our edit: or the farmer!) than the doctor.” What are your thoughts on this assertion?

    It healthier for us humans to eat real food rather then processed fake food
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Water 5-Minute Showers
    Name some of the human activities impacting the health of water systems, both locally (your watershed) and globally (freshwater and oceans). What can you do to improve the health of water systems?

    A common human activity I see that wastes water is leaving the sink running while brushing your teeth and not shutting it off. We can improve water systems by stopping littering and start throwing away our trash in trash and recycle can instead of throwing it in random places
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Weekly Meal Planning
    An average American throws out about 240 lbs of food per year. The average family of four in the US spends $1,500 a year on food that they throw out. Does this surprise you? Where would you rather use this money?

    This does not surprise me because I feel like we in America don't realize how lucky we have it opposed to other countries. The money could be used for other necessities like clothing rather then in the trash.

    I chose the actions I did because those actions are the ones that I am most likely too, or actions that I already practice on daily basis like water conservation.
