I never liked to use two-sided printing, but with setting the goal to save paper, I felt more empowered every time I printed. The good that it was doing overshadowed my old thinking that one-sided printing was easier to read documents. Thank You!!! -

REFLECTION QUESTIONSimplicity MeditateWhat would you like to invest more time in reflecting on?
Johanna Johnson 10/24/2018 1:38 PMhow people I surround myself with behave towards others and how they feel as well as myself. Sometimes things can be stressful and tempers can flare. I want to be able to acknowledge such situations and to not buy into it, but to help solve or alleviate tensions. We can all get along and work together. -

REFLECTION QUESTIONTransportation Work from HomeIt 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?
Richard Cronin 10/24/2018 11:55 AMI am fortunate to work for a company that allows this. I generally work 2 days from home, but can do it whenever needed. Bad weather, etc. So it's often more than that. -
Richard Cronin 10/24/2018 11:44 AMInterconnection agreement approved by the power company today, so that's a major hurdle. Still waiting on new bi-directional meter but I can start up the system in the mean time. Now just need sunny days in Cleveland! -

REFLECTION QUESTIONWater Collect Rain WaterTrace the water that flows down the drain from your house to the largest body of water nearby. What is the route it takes?

The river is within easy walking distance. Water from my drain is delivered to our community's new and modern treatment plant before it is discharged into the river. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONWater Insulate Water Pipes and Water HeaterHow do you think climate change will affect your region’s water supply? Think about the effects of weather, storms, salinity, and sea level rise, among other changes. How can you find out more about climate change’s impact to your region's water?
Wendy Shepard 10/24/2018 9:56 AMI may be mistaken, but I think our region's water supply will remain pretty secure. I do believe weather changes will be a challenge for local farmers in terms of erosion during unnaturally heavy rains and the effects of unseasonable temperature swings on crops. I am a member of several nonprofit organizations that regularly hold lectures. I also graduated from Penn State College of Agricultural Sciences so I receive a quarterly magazine that frequently addresses topics like this.
