    I was able to volunteer 2 hours, but not the 4 that I had signed up for during this 3-week challenge ... sigh ... 
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Transportation Work from Home
    It takes the average worker in the United States 26 minutes to travel to work. One way to fix long commutes would be to make cities more affordable. An even simpler option: promote the use of telework. Are you in an industry that would allow you to work from home? What are some obstacles you might find yourself facing while working from home?

    I can work a few days from home but not everyday. I would also need to occasionally need to come in for testing.

    To cope with stress, these have proven helpful to me: taking a walk with my dog (with no ear buds/music during that time); writing in my gratitude journal; meditating; sharing with a close friend or family member.

    I am throwing away much less! And the compost will not go to waste as it feed my garden!
  • 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?

    I ride the green belt about 90% of the way from East Boise.  this makes me feel a lot more connected to my community.
