REFLECTION QUESTION
Waste Use a Reusable Water Bottle

While water bottles are needed for health and safety in certain places, we can do more to reduce the unnecessary use of them. What are the barriers to you using reusable bottles and tap water instead of bottled water? How could you make this a permanent habit?

CJ Allen 10/02/2019 7:04 AM

There is less plastic going into the water and land fills. You could set yourself a reminder to bring a reusable. You could also stop buying cases of water.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Food Weekly Meal Planning

An average American throws out about 240 lbs of food per year. The average family of four spends $1,500 a year on food that they throw out. Does this surprise you? Where would you rather use this money?

CJ Allen 10/02/2019 6:59 AM

It doesn’t surprise me. People are wasteful. We could invest that money in charities that provide food for people that need it.
