Say No to Plastic Straws

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Transportation Try Carpooling

What are the factors that influence your choice of transportation? These can include things like money, time, and convenience, as well as perceptions of danger or safety.

AJ Ewing 10/07/2019 6:01 PM

The quickness of getting places is the main factor. I will start being more cautious of my decisions when I drive places.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Transportation Walk Instead

Half of all trips made in the US are three miles or less; 72% of them are driven. Do you feel that this fact applies to you? If so, how might you incorporate more muscle-powered transportation in your daily life?

AJ Ewing 10/07/2019 6:00 PM

Yes. I believe I drive too much only because it’s quicker. I think I will start riding my bike to my friends house instead!

REFLECTION QUESTION
Transportation Drive Less

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

AJ Ewing 10/07/2019 5:57 PM

I believe I take for granted how easy it is to get places super fast. I believe walking more will be a good reflection on how to set back and save the environment
