Local coffee shops usually use disposable cups, so making my own hot drinks at home makes me use my mugs instead of a paper cup.

REFLECTION QUESTIONWaterDo you know where your campus or community gets its water? If not, how could you find out?
Summer Field 1/20/2026 9:44 AMMy community gets its water from our local water tower, but I'm not sure where the water in the tower comes from. I can do some research online to find out where the water comes from. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONSimplicityWhat are your top 3-5 core values? How did you narrow it down to those as being your core values?
Summer Field 1/13/2026 7:58 PM1. Honesty
2. Integrity
3. Compassion
I narrowed it down to these because we all deserve a little more love and care for one another. I also extremely value being honest about your actions to create change and doing the right thing, not just recognition. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONEnergyHow is electricity generated where you live? How does it impact the environment, animals, and humans?

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."

Genna Bernhardt 11/01/2025 9:00 PMI 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 -

Genna Bernhardt 10/31/2025 5:45 PMI 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. -

lucas reineman 10/27/2025 11:30 AMI 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. -
