  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Use a Reusable Water Bottle
    While water bottles are needed for health and safety in certain places, we can do more to reduce the unnecessary use of them. What are the barriers to you using reusable bottles and tap water instead of bottled water? How could you make this a permanent habit?

    Usually I try to live in a nice clean space. Personally I try to only purchase and keep items that I need need rather than just want. Living alone in a small apartment does help with that.

    It is going well as I have been walking almost everyday and using a reusable water bottle.
