    Lack of access to nutrious food can cause a community to become weak becasue people aren't able to preform at their max without a healthy diet. Having access to nutrious foods can cause the community to become stronger because everyone is healthy.

    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?

    I try to bring my own water bottle to school every day and take it to the gym so I don't have to buy a water bottle and then waste it once I am finished.
