    4 days in and still going strong! I love that this challenge allows me to measure the positive impact I'm having on my planet- it's definitely encouraged me to think more about what I do and the impact it has, and has motivated me to make a change in other ways, such as getting in contact with politicians, educating myself on various environmental issues, etc.

    Many states and countries have advisories on eating fish. Find out what is advised for your region. Do you think your diet choices fall within these guidelines? What steps do you need to take to make sure that they do?

    They do! I actually don't eat a lot of meat OR seafood so I meet the guidelines by default, but now that I know where to find reliable information, I'll definitely make it a priority to do research before eating seafood.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Fresh Water Use a Reusable Water Bottle
    Using the links provided, investigate the bottling practices of water corporations. There have been many cases where the water rights of the local people have been violated or even completely disregarded when a corporation decides to bottle water from a particular water source. How can you advocate for those who have been harmed - both humans and wildlife - by this bottling process?

    There is no need for bottling if we use reusable bottles in the first place. No plastic bottles=no water source
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Wildlife Use Reusable Bags
    What do you do if you find yourself in the situation of needing a bag for items but don't have a reusable one with you? Carry things out in your hands? In a cart? Accept a disposable one? If you find yourself in this position often, what system could you put in place to try to create a successful habit of not using plastic bags?
