  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Water 5-Minute Showers
    Five minute showers are an impressive step toward reducing your water footprint. What is the next step you can take?

    Well after the 5 minutes water shower maybe if you like to garden plants only use the water for like 15 minutes. Also if you use a sprinkler than only use it for 20 to 25 minutes.

  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Simplicity Limit Social Media
    Social media can keep us connected with loved ones, make us laugh, and help us to learn new things. It can also take more time than we realize or intend to give. After doing this action for a few days, how do you feel? What do you notice?

    After doing this challenge i feel great and I think that some people should get off and I also think that if they do they can enjoy the outside more. I notice that if you keep using your technology a lot you start missing out on the fun stuff. Also you might forget thing that your parents told you to do.

      Technology is great as long as you keep an eye on it and don't overdo it.  I'm glad you're paying attention to this issue!
