REFLECTION QUESTION
Food Buy From a Farmers Market

What is one food choice that you make, or could make, that would do more good and less harm?

Olivia Levy 8/28/2018 8:24 PM

I am a pescatarian, so the only meat I eat is fish. That helps stop global warming because the killing and processing the animals for meat takes factories which puts chemicals into the atmosphere therefore heating up the planet. So the more people stop eating meat, the less chemicals are released.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Waste Choose Two-Sided Printing

Choosing two-sided printing can be an easy adjustment on your computer settings. How can you help others make this same switch? Can it be encouraged company wide?

Olivia Levy 8/18/2018 8:55 AM

The easiest way to help others make this switch is for the default setting to be two-sided so if people are really opposed they can switch it while everyone who wants it doesn't have to remember to push the button every time they print.

Food Choose Organic Ingredients

Olivia Levy 8/18/2018 8:52 AM

REFLECTION QUESTION
Health Exercise Daily

How can you incorporate other personal values (like quality time with friends or spending time in nature) into your exercise routine?

Olivia Levy 8/18/2018 8:45 AM

Walking/hiking through the park or forest is time in nature and exercise. If you invite some friends to come with you, then you have all three.
