This challenge has really helped with self care and being more mindful

I have really enjoyed this challenge thus far. I have implemented this that have not only benefited my community and nature but also my family.

Palm oil, coffee, cocoa, and meat/dairy/eggs are the biggest foods that lead to deforestation in my research, and of course what Americans like the most of. We have to be creative and more aware of where our food comes from in order to avoid feeding these main groups that lead to deforestation. 

I can be more aware in identifying small businesses owned by these more-excluded groups and make those my main choices of places to shop.

Ways I will help to reduce the carbon footprint will be to grow my own food and to increase my composting!

I believe that too much time inside an on screens can be a trigger for anxiety.

Hi all! I used this tool to help me learn about indigenous communities. Pretty informative! https://native-land.ca/ 

I am starting to realize that cutting down on waste in one way makes one look at the other aspects of waste in our everyday life. 

Not only does it help me save money. But it also shows me responsibility. In only getting my needs an not my wants. 

My husband and I decided to drive to NJ and NY for an anniversary trip instead of fly. I figured it would be a lot cheaper and even quicker, even though it is about a 1 hour flight. The amount of time it takes to get up, pack, go to the airport, wait, and fly.... I could just drive! It was a fun time.
