Some other ways I could reduce my environmental footprint by using the sun is by growing as much of my own food as possible. Although i will have to use was water for the plants, I am still reducing my footprint because the food i grow wont have to be transported so there will be much less GHG emissions associated with it. 

Some other easy things I could do would be to always turn lights or electronic in general off when not in use. I could make sure that once my phone is charged, I unplug it from the charger. One thing I used to do almost every night was charge my phone and then it would sit on the charger for probably 7 hours fully charged until i woke up. 

Some of the single use items I use more regularly than other products would be straw and cups. I am guilty of getting fast food drinks a lot, typically either a soda from McDonald’s or a coffee from Dunkin’ Donuts. Both of those places have cups and straws that cannot be recycled  (the plastic cups from dunks can be recycled but not in my town because the number on the bottom is not a 1 or 2. 

The one thing that stands in my way is always having the time and motivation to wash out or to clean the reuse-able cup. The big attraction for reuse-able cups for me is that fact that you wont have to clean them when you are done, you can just throw them away. But knowing the reason for using my reuse-able cup is a good reason, it motivates me to wash my cups and use reusebale cups instead of single use ones 

I agree and I believe that you have to take care of your own head first before completing any task.

Usually I cut back on buying and consuming more than what is needed, because overdoing what cause more damage than good.

The most difficult part of recycling is the force of habit and teaching myself what is and shouldn’t be recycled. 

Most modern uses of work are through technology. So by going paperless with using online resources replacing printing, can make the difference.

Food Is a big determining factor in our overall health. The current foods we have today are very much unnatural and can be a leading cause in health problems. Eating healthier options like meats, eggs, and milk from a farm are a much healthier options, and may even prevent visits to the doctor. 

I try to walk everywhere I can or ride my bike and I try to only drive when necessary.
