I noticed a lot of trees and plants. I walked down to the beach and saw some shells and other things.

REFLECTION QUESTIONFood, Agriculture, and Land Use Tend A GardenHave you ever had a significant experience in nature that altered your perspective or focus? If so, please describe it.
Avra Hackney 4/15/2021 7:13 AMI don't know if this counts but one time I went to the zoo and 4 parakeets landed on my head. it was cool, but I also don't think parakeets should be in zoos. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONFood, Agriculture, and Land Use Smaller PortionsWhile dishing food out, we tend to load our plates with more than we need. Using smaller plates helps to mitigate this. Aside from the environmental benefits, what other benefits might come from eating/serving smaller portions?

REFLECTION QUESTIONFood, Agriculture, and Land Use Reduce Animal ProductsWhy do people in richer countries eat more meat than people in other places? How does eating more meat affect our bodies, our planet, and other people?
Avra Hackney 4/13/2021 7:14 AMI think that people in richer countries eat more meat because they have enough money to not just grow things in the garden. eating more meat might affect the environment negatively because people might overfish or hunt too much, and that might cause a species to go extinct.
