  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Energy

    Electricity is probably generated through the burning of fossil fuels, I assume. This pollutes the air potentially causing harm to local animals or plants, and also contributes to global warming which impacts the entire world very negatively.

    Nature
    Father Thomas Berry says, "... our primary purpose is celebration. Celebration of the dawn and the sunset and the different seasons of the year is a religious ritual, a way in which humans can establish their integral relationship with the universe, with the planet Earth." What is your response to Berry's assertion?

    I agree with him! It is very peaceful in a self-satisfying way to connect with nature and the Earth. It brings out a deep feeling that I only feel when doing something that makes my soul happy

    I don't want to use reusables because then I have to take time to wash it too. I think I can start putting things in the dishwasher if I don't have time to wash them.

    I had to be more efficient in the shower. I usually just stand there for a while soaking up the hot water, but today I did not do that. I quickly washed my hair and body and got out of the shower.

    Driving my car daily. I am willing to start biking to and from the grocery store and/or using public transit on days when using my car is not necessary.
