Until I started tracking...I never realized how quick people are to offer you a bag. Even if you are just purchasing a small item. How do we change this mindset...opting in vs. opting out?

It will be fun to see how my motivation works for this as the weather is not the best day to day. I am lucky to live in an aria with so many walkable parks. This challenge could be very different for some people who dont have fast access to public parks.

No reusable bags will be my largest challenge this month. I will need a solution to purchasing produce. There must be some reusable produce bag product... but then are we just purchasing more products?

It feels great to spend more time outside. I love the fresh air and how calm it makes feel. Today I was outside watching the eclipse and it was amazing! I'm in an area where the sun was 96% covered and it was really cool how dark everything got.

I have always been one of those people who go to the pantry and figures out what to make for dinner. When I decide, I often have to run to the store for one more ingredient...so I am hoping that planning meals not only reduces food waste, but also helps with less carbon emissions as I will make less trips to the store. Wish me luck on this...

As a resident of the Great Lake State, access to fresh water has always felt abundant and secure. However, a recent trip out west opened my eyes to the critical importance of preserving and protecting this invaluable natural resource.
