Stephanie's actions

Nourishing Food

Weekly Meal Planning

I will reduce food waste, excess carbon and save money by planning my daily and weekly menus so that I only purchase the ingredients needed.

COMPLETED 4
DAILY ACTIONS

Regenerating Nature

Support Local Pollinators

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 10 minutes researching which plants support local pollinators and plant a few in my area.

COMPLETED
ONE-TIME ACTION

Regenerating Nature

Spend Time Outside

I will replace 120 minute(s) per day typically spent inside and often with electronics with quality time outside walking, exercising, enjoying the sunrise/sunset, gardening, journaling, observing nature, or practicing gratitude for nature.

    What are the implications for a culture that spends most of its time inside and on screens?

    Lack of movement and fresh air is going to put a damper on your spirit and physical health. Being outside opens up your airways, lets blood flow, and gives your brain a chance to turn up its memory bank by letting terpenes flood your system... so amazing :p
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Nourishing Food Weekly Meal Planning
    An average American throws out about 240 lbs of food per year. The average family of four in the US spends $1,500 a year on food that they throw out. Does this surprise you? Where would you rather use this money?

    Investing money on raised beds, good soil, and some seeds is a guarantee for your yearly costs of food to go down. Start saving the seeds and replant year after year. Guaranteed pesticide free, cheaper, helping pollinators, and you get the joy of knowing you did it all yourself as a mental health bonus! Plus all the outside time!

    Hi My name is Stephanie. Looking forward to making impactful decisions everyday to help build a more sustainable future for myself and my community. Being outside regularly helps me stay connected to my neighbors and things happening in my community while also getting a chance to observe the health of the plants and animals in my area. Participating in the lived experiences of my community inspires me to makes small gradual changes that effects all of my neighbors, one legged (plants), two legged, and four legged for the greater good!
