REFLECTION QUESTION
Nature Go for a Daily Walk

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

Amy Abdai 10/10/2019 6:08 PM

When I am driving, I am so focused on driving safely, that I can miss things around me. When I am walking, it is easier to stop, look around, and enjoy the little things.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Waste Learn About & Practice Sustainable Fashion

How can you express your personality, creativity, and values in ways that don't require fast fashion or buying more clothes and accessories?

Amy Abdai 10/05/2019 6:05 PM

For me, it is mixing and matching what I already have. Changing up the accessories can turn one outfit into many different looks.

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? 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?

Amy Abdai 10/04/2019 8:14 PM

It really depends on how many items I am buying. If I only have a couple things, I carry them out by hand. I do take the plastic bags if there is too much to carry. I am getting better about taking bags with me to the mall, etc. Tonight, I was at the bookstore and went back out to the car to get my bag, because I knew I would be buying way more than I could carry, and wanted to avoid the plastic bag.
