Victoria's actions
Waste
Choose Two-Sided Printing
I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper each day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided.
Waste
Use Reusable Bags
I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.
Waste
Skip the Straw
Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.
Food
Smart Seafood Choices
I will visit seafoodwatch.org or download the app and commit to making better seafood choices for a healthier ocean.
Simplicity
Meditate
I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 5 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.

REFLECTION QUESTIONWaste Skip the StrawHow could you incorporate other "R's" -- reduce, reuse, refuse, repair, repurpose, etc. -- into your lifestyle?
Victoria Daley 10/03/2019 7:23 AMI always use scrap paper for quick writing that I am not grading. My Odyssey team constantly uses recycled materials and I have reusable bags for my lunch! -
Victoria Daley 10/02/2019 8:57 AMIt is going well. I wish I had more time to explore this website. I'm sure I can do more! -
REFLECTION QUESTIONWaste Use Reusable BagsWhat 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? 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?
Victoria Daley 10/02/2019 8:56 AMI used a plastic bag just yesterday. I only used one and carried much of it out of the store. I will recycle this plastic bag at Smiths. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONWaste Choose Two-Sided PrintingChoosing two-sided printing can be an easy adjustment on your computer settings. How can you help others make this same switch? Can it be encouraged company wide?
Victoria Daley 10/02/2019 8:56 AMI can suggest it to my colleagues. I will also take their wasted paper and use it for my classroom. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONFood Smart Seafood ChoicesMany states and countries have advisories on eating fish. Find out what is advised for your region. Do you think your diet choices fall within these guidelines? What steps do you need to take to make sure that they do?
Victoria Daley 10/02/2019 8:55 AMI have looked at the website you all suggested. I will research it more. I look at my cans of fish at the store for sustainable, pole caught fish, but can always do more.
