  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Weekly Meal Planning
    An average American throws out about 240 lbs of food per year. The average family of four spends $1,500 a year on food that they throw out. Does this surprise you? Where would you rather use this money?

    This doesn't surprise me, but the statistic definitely needs to be lowered.

    connecting with others really helps with my mental and emotional health because especially right now with everything going on, it helps to talk to your friends and laugh and feel connected to people.

    Volunteering enhances your community and changes your relationship with it because you feel more connected to your community.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    People Spend Time Outside
    Rachel Carson said that we need the beauty and mysteries of the natural world for our spiritual and emotional development. Does that ring true for you? What are the implications for a culture that spends most of its time indoors?

    that does ring true for me. I think that we need the natural world for a reason, and it helps us get through many things.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    People Pick Up the Phone
    What do all of us have in common, regardless of politics, race, religion, occupation, or place we live? How can finding common ground help us as a society and as a species?

    we all have in common that we all are made up of the same insides and we all have a heart. we all are fighting for the same thing in the end
