  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Skip the Straw
    How could you incorporate other "R's" -- reduce, reuse, refuse, repair, repurpose, etc. -- into your lifestyle?

    I will incorporate these "R's" by reducing the amount of straws I use and reusing a metal straw. I will also refuse to accept plastic straws and repurpose them being keeping them in a container so when I recycle them they won't get scattered an end up in the ocean.

    I became more aware throughout the day of wasted energy, and tried my best to reduce it.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Energy Turn It Off
    How is electricity generated where you live? How does it impact the environment, animals, and humans?

    Electricity impacts our life by emitting greenhouse gases and other harmful things. Using extra electricity that is not needed produces non-renewable energy, which is bad for our environment. Turning off our electricity when not in use, we are reducing all of these things.

    Having more sleep helps prepare me for starting the next day off right.
