  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Use a Reusable Mug
    Maybe you've heard how good it is to switch from a single use coffee cup to a reuseable one but it's just hard to make the switch. Think about what stands in your way of making this a habit. By identifying the challenges, you can begin to work through them to have better success in taking this action. Knowing the difference you are making, how does it make you feel?

    As someone who uses a lot of to-go cups for coffee and tea, it makes me feel great to know how much paper and plastic I will be saving by utilizing a reusable cup.

  • 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?

    This actually doesn't surprise me.  I struggle with consuming food before it goes bad.  I am working on purchasing less and utilizing food in more creative ways before it expires.
