August 2 at 7:06 AMThank you so much everyone for participating this year! We all did an excellent job and it's exciting to see how much our cumulative efforts have added up :)

July 31 at 8:12 PMThis month was really interesting to see all the ups and downs; there were both good and bad days but it was really eye opening to see all the different changes we can truly make in our life time!

July 31 at 8:02 PMBy looking at my most recent recycling and trash run, my waste audit is a lot different than what it used to be. I’ve learned that I can recycle more of the items I have/ receive or buy, and a lot of my trash waste has just become food scraps and simple materials that I can’t recycle because of what is accepted. One thing I’ve pinpointed that I...

July 31 at 7:53 PMEver since looking into the field of wildlife, this has been one of the main topics at the forefront of my mind. It always pains me whenever I see a loose balloon float away or a lantern show being promoted. One way I would love to promote balloon free celebrations is by making my own decision and persuading my friends to do the same.

July 31 at 7:36 PMBy having access to these products, it will help lead to education on how to have proper hygiene during these times. It will not only help comfort those who need these items, but also help teach others.

July 31 at 2:32 PMEnding this PFJ and calling it a mixed bag of success for this year. On a last note, I am mulling over a piece of news I saw coming out of Germany. A grocery chain there picked nine items to sell for one week at prices reflective of their true ecosystem/environmental cost. In some cases, these items were 94% more expensive because they...

July 31 at 1:23 PMLast day! Upon reflecting on everything this month, I still feel that the biggest action we can all take against single use plastic is to advocate companies to own the responsibility. Major changes will only come from the producers - citizens currently have few plastic-alternative choices and that needs to change. Once plastic is created it is...

July 31 at 9:03 AMGot to tour my local waste place on base. They do an awful job and I have already reached out on ways to help improve.

July 31 at 9:01 AMI am very grateful for this opportunity. I try my best everyday to make some better choices for our environment because without it, we wouldn't survive. This whole month also taught me that having to be a little more focused on less plastic packaging, I am eating healthier! Extra bonus!

July 31 at 8:58 AMI love sharing economy's! It's how it was in the old days and should continue to be. We are social creatures and it takes a village to raise each other up appropriately. =] When we have a sharing economy, I think we get back in touch with our emotional wellbeing and better appreciation for things around us.
