October 27 at 5:37 PMGreat job, team! I am so proud of us. And I am reminded of NVeco's mission: "We will combine efforts to help ensure a healthy environment for current and future generations through activities and events that promote recycling; reduce carbon emissions; and encourage others to reuse, reduce, recycle." Take care. Gillian

October 26 at 9:29 PMPollinators play a major role in the reproduction of flower and plant species and are key in allowing plants to produce things like fruits. One of my favorite pollinators is the honey bee. 🐝 🐝

October 26 at 8:42 PMSeveral foods that are not forest-friendly include Palm Oil, Coffee, and Cocoa. Through my research, I found that the number one way to remove foods that are not forest-friendly is to simply not eat them or restrict them to small quantities. Using this way, we can slowly reduce our overall intake of these items and help preserve trees and the...

October 26 at 8:38 PMIn my research, I have found many hopeful and inspiring things regarding the waste and recycling services in my area. Some of these include the fact that many waste facilities and dumps have been increasingly able to recycle a majority of the materials or send them to be turn into compost or other materials.

October 26 at 8:36 PMSo far in my research, I have not been able to find any current ballots or elections that have been put in any environment-related topics.

October 26 at 8:18 PMThe thing that interested me the most was the fact that we spend a higher amount of our energy on our heating and cooling systems compared to the electricity/energy needed to run electronic devices and lights.

October 26 at 8:16 PMMany times when we want to contribute toward a cause and donate to helping the environment (either time or money) we would have to adopt a lifestyle that has a lower standard and allows us to get by with our needs/necessities and not our wants. Some specific ways include shifting our focus to things like food and shelter and promoting it such...
-
October 26 at 8:12 PMIn order to help food-insecure regions have access to local and seasonal foods, together, as a community, we would have to pitch in to help by supplying and distributing the food across regions. Severals ways I can contribute to this change are by donating food or even transporting the food from one region to another. This would help promote an...

October 26 at 4:00 PMDonating food allows me to give back to my community and help others who may not have the food or resources needed to survive and sustain themselves or others. Throughout my life, I've been told to strive to find opportunities and ways to help others. Donating food ties back and connects to both my cultural and personal values and serves as one...
