    Got my voter information booklet in the mail this week so it was a perfect time to learn about voting access and combating voting access restrictions.

    I learned about the food supply chain today and came across an article about how COVID changed our PNW fisheries and how they transitioned to local markets when international and restaurant markets were limited. Interesting!

    Today I calculated my water footprint. Very educational and made me think about how water is used in more than just the obvious, but I wish some of the questions considered multiunit housing or people that rent their homes so don't have the options suggested.

    I calculated my carbon footprint yesterday! It gives your results in the number Earths we would need if everyone lived like you do. *gulp*
