    Today I purchased 2 Hydroflasks as Christmas gifts, for family members who are well behind in the world of sustainability. Also completed the Sustainability Audit at my workplace this week, with great results and of course room for improvement!

    The last few weeks I've been focusing on planning all of my meals, hence eliminating waste. Also trying to incorporate more plant-based food items into my diet. Today I was unfortunately not able to bike to work since it was pouring rain.
