Next year I'll make sure I log every day, now that I know you can go back in time - if you remember what you did!! Thanks for organizing @Kylie!! It was fun :)

I'm loving realizing how many animal-less meals I've been having lately and how mindful I have been about 0-waste and trying to not use single-use plastics! It feels motivating!

REFLECTION QUESTION
Transportation

List some of the places you frequent often (work, grocery store, natural areas). Could you choose one or two days a week to schedule driving with a friend, neighbor or co-worker to these places?
Sprout Hochberg 4/28/2021 8:04 AM
I telecommute two days a week - which is even better than carpooling as the car stays in the garage.

  I wish I could commute to work! But, my wife and I always make sure to try and do all errands together (even if it's places one of us would rather not go to), so we only take one car and hopefully minimize the impact!

  I didn't realize that until too late to remember what I did early April, but now I'm totally taking advantage of that function haha

I need to make sure I'm logging minutes each day- there are some of these things I've been doing and haven't logged unfortunately!

Reducing (or eliminating) exhaust emissions and improving public health are two benefits of green vehicles. What other motivators inspire you to consider switching to a more fuel-efficient vehicle?

I spent many hours researching electric vehicles before I purchased mine.

Electricity

Changing lightbulbs is an excellent first step toward energy efficiency! What's next for you?
Sprout Hochberg 4/08/2021 5:51 AM
Electric car - check
Efficient lightbulbs- check
eating less meat - check
I utilize paper products like tissues & toilet paper --- buying more sustainable products is a step I can take.

I find motivation knowing I already - naturally - do many "actions" I've signed up for.

Sprout, you're such a great motivator! I'm loving all of these actions! I too have been doing a great deal of vegan dishes. I will admit my current diet has me devouring a great deal of fruits and veggies which has made that challenge easier! I'm also just so excited to witness all of our actions!

I cooked two big vegan dishes this weekend to eat throughout the week - so it is easy to meet that goal. I find doing my food prep on the weekend helps me tremendously in eating healthy throughout the week.
