    How do you experience your neighborhood or city differently when walking instead of driving?

    Life feels much slower walk as one of course would take longer to get to Point B. It's great in order to not feel as if life is just speeding by.

    Nature Practice Gratitude for Earth
    Kathleen Dean Moore says that a sense of gratitude leads to a sense of moral obligation. Do you agree? How can we cultivate a sense of gratitude as individuals, and as a society?

    The simple answer lies in having that inherent gratitude. By truly having it, the proof of it is in the reflection of developing convicting moral obligations.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste 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 or aren't allowed to use the one you brought? 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?

    I will buy a good amount of reusable bags and keep them in my car, this way when ever I shop I will always have them.

    Waste Use a Reusable Water Bottle
    While water bottles are needed for health and safety in certain places, we can do more to reduce the unnecessary use of them. What are the barriers to you using reusable bottles and tap water instead of bottled water? How could you make this a permanent habit?

    We all really need to implement reusable water bottles, we must do this in order to shift the way water bottle companies operate.

    The amount of times I drove in the past in any situation has opened my eyes up to the fact that there are alternate methods.

    I have been trying to plan more meals by coming up with cooking ideas and then buying the ingredients. Instead of buying a lot of other random food items.
