Use Reusable Bags
I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.
Food
Whole Foods Diet
I will enjoy 1 meal(s) each day free of processed foods.

Advocate for More Food Options
Access to affordable, nutritious food is a food justice issue. I will advocate for local and/or organic food options at work, on campus and/or in the spaces I frequent.

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.

I will watch 1 documentary(ies) about food sovereignty: the right of local peoples to control their own food systems including markets, ecological resources, food cultures and production methods.

REFLECTION QUESTIONFoodMichael Pollan states that “it is better to pay the grocer (our edit: or the farmer!) than the doctor.” What are your thoughts on this idea?
Jaume Rodriguez 10/15/2019 6:35 AMIt is fascinating that just about all food available at the supermarket is processed in some manner! We need our farmers to earn a living and provide the food that we so desperately need in a way that it was intended.
