Moving forward, I will try to be more conscious of the amount of time I let the water run while washing dishes. It doesn't take long to waste water.

REFLECTION QUESTIONHealth & EquityHow have you reduced your purchasing habits and what would you like to do next to reduce your consumption habits?
Morgan Conklin 4/30/2023 9:20 AMI have definitely tried to reduce the amount of times I purchase coffee when I'm running errands. I have tried to adapt the mindset that buying coffee should be a fun little treat or pick me up rather than an everday occurrence. Making coffee at home is cheaper, quicker, and more sustainable! -
Morgan Conklin 4/30/2023 9:17 AMI've been trying to be more conscious about the waste I create and have invested in Stasher reusable sandwich and snack bags, as well as glass straws. I also bring my own water bottle wherever I go or grab a glass cup from the kitchen at work to stay hydrated. -

My foster dog and I have been enjoying getting out and about, especially now that Spring is starting to Spring! It's also been allowing me to discover strange new places where litter exists. Today, we found a Richard Simmons DVD in the woods. Tomorrow, we have a neighborhood clean-up, and I am making note of all of the hidden spots I've found to hit to tidy! -
REFLECTION QUESTIONBasic Needs & SecurityWhat was the tastiest meatless or vegan meal you ever had or had recently? Did you make it? Can you share a recipe?
Hanna Cronin 4/14/2023 6:59 AMI had Thai lettuce wraps with avocado from the Cheesecake Factory today! They were delicious and also a dish that can be super easy to replicate at home. -
Margaret Byrne 4/13/2023 12:22 PMWe've reached the half halfway point of Earth Month!!! I'm excited to see what my teammates have done so far. What changes or habits have you implemented into your daily life? Which ones have you tried, but wouldn't stick, and why? I'm switched all of my cleaning products and tools to either be plastic-free, reusable, or healthier for my family. I've also changed my search engine from Google to Ecosia ("more you search – the more trees we plant").-
Anne Sablich 4/21/2023 8:25 AMI have been very bad about remembering to log in here to update! For Earth Month, I have been very conscious about making sure that everything that can be composted, does get composted (unless it can be fed to chickens, in which case, the chickens get some dietary diversity!).

REBECCA KAMMERER 4/10/2023 1:22 PMI made Vegetarian Spring Rolls! A very low impact lunch with only the rice paper coming in plastic wrap! All of my veggies were wrap free. I also made a peanut sauce to dip in with items I already had in my house! -
