What concerns me most about how we are affecting the planet is the  continued making of choices without any real thought to their consequences. The average North American needs to accept that this is no longer just about sacrificing earth's habitats and life's beautiful, diverse species. The effects of our convenience based lifestyle are now threatening the lives of other human beings on our planet. 

We have to overcome the greatest of the Four R's - RETHINK. 
How do I Reduce & Reuse, so there is no need for Recycle? 

A community's accesss to nutrition food is key in overall healthy development and productivity. The need is great, surprisingly in urban pockets of large cities. With all the food waste being created, from farm to market, market to consumer, and alot in our own homes, there is a great opportunity to reduce our waste, and redirect the excess to provide for those in need. We must do better. 

There are many reasons which contribute to North Americans meat-rich diets. We have a large cattle economy, throughout our history meat has been equated with wealth, and our agricultural industries have promoted meat protein as the "best" source for our body's needs and daily diets
As we reexamine North American habits of consumption, we must create a shift in our understanding of plant-based diets and plant protein alternatives - not only for our own individual benefits, but also for the positive impact it can have on our planet. 

Every morning I always turn off lights in my bedroom also, I keeping care the lights.

The next step I could possibly take is to try to use less water everyday. For example, not letting the water run while brushing my teeth, making sure the tap is off, and etc.

Barriers for making this a new habit would require me not to purchase store bought water, and instead use tap. I can set myself up for  success by making this permanent change by using a reusable water bottle it would reduce the waste of plastic, it would be more affordable, use my current water bottle (which is reusable) and etc.

By taking walks around/in nature, and etc.
