Reflection QuestionClimate & Ecosystems Watch a Documentary About Climate Change or NatureWhat did you watch, and what was the most important thing you learned in the documentary(ies) you watched? How does what you learned connect to your understanding of climate change and Earth Month?
Scott Twelves 4/30/2023 6:49 AMWe watched The Year Earth Changed, which showed how the Earth was able to breathe and nature re-establish itself during the year of lockdown. It was amazing to see the impact that that much less pollution, noise, and people was able to have on the world in just one year, and to think of all that we could have done to keep that impact going. -

Reflection QuestionBasic Needs & Security Try a New Vegan or Vegetarian RecipeWhat was the dish you made, and how did it turn out? What did it feel like to try a new recipe? If you can share a picture, please do!
Scott Twelves 4/25/2023 8:56 AMMy wife and I made a vegan "ahi tuna" bowl, which used grilled and marinated watermelons in place of ahi tuna. We also had a homemade "mayonnaise" made out of cashews, sriracha, lemon juice, water, and soy sauce. Other than having a slight crunch, the watermelon really did look/feel/taste like ahi tuna, and the meal was delicious!
