    How could you incorporate other "R's" -- reduce, reuse, refuse, repair, repurpose, etc. -- into your lifestyle?

    I could also make sure I am recycling and double checking I am carelessly mixing trash and recycling. I also could start a compost to use for my garden

    How can you incorporate other personal values (like quality time with friends or spending time in nature) into your exercise routine?

    I can always take a run or exercise outside as it is about to be the perfect weather to do so. I also have the option of exercising with a friend or family member

    Maybe you've heard how good it is to switch from a single use coffee cup to a reusable one, but it's just hard to make the switch. What stands in your way of making this a habit? By identifying the challenges, you can begin to work through them to have better success in taking this action. Knowing the difference you are making, how does it make you feel?
