    Not going to lie, but having this be a challenge between teams was great!

    I don't have a lot of space as I live in an apartment with two others. However, having the same goal of sustainability helps us plan our space. We have a small planter where we can grow herbs. It's not a lot, but it's a start! Even a small plot with ONE type of herb or produce can help you take control of your carbon footprint and diet.

    It's unfair for someone on the coast to determine the diet and agricultural methods of someone living in the desert. Only the people living in the community know what needs to be done to support their diet. If we support food sovereignty, people will be able to take on more responsibility for their food and body. This type of independence...

    There is no environmental justice without the acknowledgment of environmental racism. What communities live near factories? Agricultural fields? What are the social and racial factors that influence environmental racism? Kids of color and who live in under-resourced communities tend to have more pollution in their air and lungs. This affects...

    Many people will act as if sustainability is new. That is obviously not the case. When thinking about ways to rebalance the give and take relationship between us and our environment, we need to listen to our Native communities! We shouldn't work towards never eating meat. That isn't being realistic and excluding many communities that either 1)...

    The amount of single plastic we use because most “recyclable” plastic ends of in the landfill. The idea of recycling certain materials was a corporate ply to make the public believe that they are more earth friendly . It is important for people to educate themselves on the trash they are creating because it only ends up in the ocean, the...

    I use reusable lunch utensils and containers. Most importantly I use a reusable water bottle and tumbler.

    Restorative justice focuses on healing and forgiveness! That changes the way we view crime and being hurt by others. I think it can elevate social and environmental justice efforts by putting the responsibility on both participants!

    It’s a daily reminder to be conscientious of other people and their experience. To know that others coexist in a world, allows for people to pay it forward and live, not only for oneself but for others.

    Reducing meat intake and increasing fruit and vegetable intake not only betters an individual’s health, but also reduces our carbon footprint. This healthy practice can be most beneficial to low income household and people of color that are historically known for having chronic diseases.
