My ecochallenge is going good.

I became less stressed when I made space away from my inbox.

I agree with Berry's assertion that life isn't just about surviving and living but its about appreciating the nature around us.

Eating less meat and more fruits and veggies affects myself by making me feel more energized and healthy. I tried cucumbers, bell peppers, tomatoes, lemons, and cantaloup.

Expressing gratitude impacts my recipient by feeling a purpose and gratefulness in what they do.

Social inequalities diminish a strong sense of community because it diminishes a fair connection to others.

The thing that makes me feel connected to my community is my friends and the people I get to connect with.

In my life I emit the most carbon when I use car transportation. I am willing to take public transportation more and walk more so reduce this output.

People who are economically privileged should be responsible with consuming and owning less because they have more choices and resources to achieve this. The concept of "reduce" can be presented to those who may be struggling by helping them get enough of what they need so that we can reduce the waste in stuff.

Spending more time outdoors can enhance my sense of place by making myself reflect on my surroundings and the traits of nature around me.
