    What is one way you will reduce your carbon footprint? What is a practice you already have that helps you reduce your carbon footprint?

    I can further reduce my carbon footprint by prioritizing foods in season, car trips versus flights, biking to work more, eating less beef/lamb, and purchasing local goods. I aim to try to ride my bike to work now that the weather is getting warmer.

    I work to reduce water consumption on a daily basis when it comes to laundry, spending practices, recycling, dishes, and bathroom practices. I think I could do better by considering water use involved in food practices and power and be more conscious about my food sources and electicity/fuel use.

    How does practicing a work-life balance create a more sustainable life for you? How might it contribute to sustainability more broadly?

    It allows me the time live a bit slower which helps me to see and grasp the waste and time I produce and use for each task which gives me a better opportunity to be conscientious about my habits.
