    Easiest thing to do at fast food restaurants, theaters, etc. (Eating fast food has other health and environmental effects as well, but that's for another challenge and/or post.) Just drink from the cup - you can also forego the plastic lid. Now, if only you could bring your own cup.

    Screen time ends at ±10 p.m. No news, no internet after that time. Shifted my news gathering to a.m. Allows for more reading, a calming activity for me, in the evening. I've found that even if I'm up until 1 a.m. I feel much more rested in the morning.

    I currently grow plants in Mason jars, but have dreams of windowsill gardens. Inside, I feel I have to enclose them more because of the bugs that are found in my older apartment.

    I prefer to run with other people (to distract me from the running part) and catch up en route. Hiking is my activity of choice on my weekends, because I miss access to trees and fresh air during the week.

    Riding transit gives me an opportunity to people watch, and is more convenient for certain errands. Walking/running/biking really increases your awareness of the city and its infrastructure, while also providing more moments of unexpected joy. I didn't realize how much public art we had!

    In some ways, burgers and fries have become an integral part of the American identity and experience. We are also always on the go, making fast food really appealing. We can begin shifting this meat-focused food culture by increasing access to fresh produce in food deserts, providing more vegetarian options at restaurants, and reminding people...

    I stepped away from checking in regularly, but I'm now back on track.

    It surprises me that this figure is so low. I know that I am still figuring out how much to purchase week-to-week and am guilty of throwing away food. I would rather use the money to create a small garden for my patio.

    You have to think about what you can creatively repurpose, reuse, repair or even think about if you need it at all.
