    New to composting? Be sure to check out the action resource links to learn tips and more about it. As you transition from throwing food away to composting, what do you notice about how much you are tossing? How will you use your compost once it is ready?

  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Transportation
    Half of all trips made in the US are three miles or less; 72% of them are driven. Does this statistic describe your own transportation habits? If so, how might you incorporate more muscle-powered transportation in your daily life?

    I think it is important because it is a way you can express your opinion freely. You can take action on your thoughts

    I bought my milk from the local farmers market! It was so yummy, and comes in a bottle i bring back each week, so they can reuse them.
