    What surprised you about the two produce lists? How will you use these lists for your grocery shopping? Have you used these lists before?

    Always pay attention to the first digit of the barcode on your produce. it's not actually organic if it starts with a 4 and not a 9.

    I watched "Is this the end of the alps" on YouTube. I get a lot of great information regarding sustainable lifestyle choices. If you have a chance, go watch it. It's about 40 minuets long.

    How has your access to various kinds of transportation throughout your life influenced your current attitudes about transportation and your transportation behavior?

    Najhie Shell 4/03/2023 8:22 AM
    Our organization already prioritizes and rewards those who use other modes of transportation. This was just an extra incentive to try harder each day to lesson my carbon footprint. Can you do the same?
