May 17 at 9:42 PMI collect rainwater for my plants! It helps save a ton of water and it's good because some times San Diego tap water can be harsh on the plants.
-
May 10 at 3:04 PMLuckily, I can honestly say that the "food deserts" in San Diego are not that bad. However, I have lived in San Francisco before, and I must say that the food deserts in San Francisco are some of the worst I have ever seen. If you are young, or marginalized, or if you can't afford motor transportation, then shopping for groceries in...

May 4 at 11:56 AMPineapple, because I love sweet fruits. I live in San Diego, where most fruits grow nearly all year. However, I really like pineapples, yet they are not locally sourced.
-
April 22 at 9:26 PMThis week I have been staying at a hotel for a tennis tournament. I think it is so easy to be less mindful when staying at a hotel of the electricity that is being used. I make sure that everyday before we leave to our matches we turn all the lights off and have the air conditioning off so that we aren't wasting energy while we are away.

April 21 at 8:16 AMI visited Redwood National Park a few years ago and was just in awe, not only at the enormous trees but also the rich soil. I am from Arizona, and our soil is powdery and tan. Only native plants can be planted directly in the ground, and even that is a bit of a stretch sometimes because the soil is compact and poor. In the Redwood forest, the...

April 21 at 8:02 AMI had the chance to speak with a friend that works at Trader Joe's in Liberty Station. She was pulling food (specifically bread items) off of the shelf due to them being close to expiration dates. After watching the documentary, "Just Eat It", I had to ask... where is this food going if it is being taken off the shelves? I was pleased...
-
April 16 at 8:01 AMI try to get as little paper mail as possible. Paper mail has become way too wasteful, especially, advertisements from credit card companies. I pay my credit card off online every month, however, I still receive paper advertisements from other companies in the mail.
-
April 16 at 7:56 AMI use plastic utensils only once, and I am trying to stop using so much plastic to eat just one meal. I notice that restaurants usually provide too many napkins, and plastic utensils in my area. This issue is much like using plastic straws, something that is easily fixed by telling the employee of the restaurant you are buying food from that...
-
April 15 at 1:46 PMI have a small family, therefore, it is not hard for me to cook meals without wasting too much food. For example, rice is something that I can cook, and not waste anything. If I was cooking vegetables, I would just prepare tomatoes. As long as the tomatoes are clean, I can eat every part of the tomato.
-
April 14 at 11:40 AMI don't pour oil down the drains around my house. Whenever I have to change the oil of my car, I go somewhere to get the oil changed where I know that the oil will be disposed of properly.
