    Animals and plants are mostly affected by environmental degradation. They can lose their homes, the food chain is off, they die, they can get weak, etc.

    Restorative Justice can help us treat each other better and the planet. They can see the perspective of the victim so they have less chance of reoffending. When people do things they litter they can be shown the consequences so they will stop doing it.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Go Paperless
    Reducing your paper mail can reduce mental clutter as well as physical waste -- by reducing what is coming in, you can reduce what is going into the recycling bin too. How does it make you feel? What is the next step you will take to reduce your waste?

    I have picked paper billing for my job documents and bills. It makes me feel good knowing these little things I'm doing are helping the environment. I will use less plastic bags and use more reusable bags.

    Instead of going out of town we stayed and did a lot of things in town. We didn't have to put a deposit down so it was easy to cancel.  We did things like went to the Zoo and Grady's fun park.

    I went to my local bus stop and picked up any trash around it. It wasn't that much but I made a clean environment for people taki ng the bus and nearby animals.

      Even just a little bit really helps. You might have influenced some one else to pick up a couple things, then someone else..... soon everything is cleaned up?
