  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Use a Reusable Water Bottle
    While water bottles are needed for health and safety in certain places, we can do more to reduce the unnecessary use of them. What are the barriers to you using reusable bottles and tap water instead of bottled water? How could you make this a permanent habit?

    With reusable bottles, you always need to find a source to refill. With bottled water, its convenient to just buy it as it is. I tend to always have filtered water in my fridge, so I can avoid that temptation.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Compost Food Waste
    New to composting? Be sure to check out the action resource links to learn tips and more about it. As you transition from throwing food away to composting, what do you notice about how much you are tossing? How will you use your compost once it is ready?

    I definitely find new things that can be composted instead of landfilled every day. I use compost in the school garden :)

    I like running! Running gives you a chance to exercise and look around at the world as you do it :)
