    I have been following environmental current events for some time now, but recently I have begun to look up many different sources. Keeping up with all the new on environmental issues has helped me become more aware of what I can do in my daily life. I've found that I enjoy being informed on the most recent changes in environmental policy specifically. Even with a slow moving process, it's still one that I enjoy keeping up with.

    I would like to learn more ways to become conscious of what I'm doing that has a major impact on the environment and what I can do to try to counteract these actions. I hope that I'll be able to identify actions that I can do to help improve my environmental impacts while maintaining solid ties to sustainability. This is something that I already try to do, but I would like to make it more concrete rather than having it more abstract as it is currently.
