    I feel like we often forget that scrolling on our phones or watching tv has an environmental impact, but it greatly does. I was surprised but also understood some of the different ways we can reduce our carbon footprint related to internet such as installing ad-blockers, unsubscribing from mass emails, and clearing up your personal cloud so you don't have 25 versions of the same photo. I often forget how items like that seem so small but can still contribute to a smaller carbon footprint.

      I didn't realize about those things either. It's funny the things we do all of the time have an impact on our carbon footprint.

    Fresh air and movement are good for our entire being and can help us think more clearly and creatively. How does taking a walk each day affect yourself and/or your work?

    Taking a walk everyday helps me be more productive at work and allows my body to get a reset from sitting all day.
