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

    I think I take pretty quick showers but without timing it, I don’t actually know. Plus, if I set an alarm with annoying music, I’ll be very motivated to get out of the shower to turn it off!
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Reduce Animal Products
    What do you think contributes to people in North America eating more meat than in other places, and what does this say about North American values and ways of living? How do we start shifting a meat-focused food culture?

    It’s the norm for meat to be the main course in the US. But whole grains and vegetables can be combined in to be very filling and flavorful - though it does take some knowledge or a good recipe to get the flavors and food combinations right. I really appreciate restaurants (like Portland’s Laughing Planet) that provide great examples of flavorful, filling vegetarian meals.
