    Runoff, with chemical fertilizer added, is potentially both wasteful and destructive to organic ecosystems

    Met my neighbor because his dog keeps pooping in our dog area and he refuses to clean it up. It was not a great meeting, he is a terrible person.

    People are over-consuming and hoarding with the media scaring people over the Coronavirus.

    Recently my roommates and I called the city of Fort Worth to have a recycling bin delivered to our house. I have noticed a big difference in the amount of trash that we throw away versus the amount of recycling that was included in that before we got the bin. It has made me realize how much reusable material that we were wasting.

    Steepening the incentives to follow sustainable habits and increasing the penalties of not following them - however controversial, might be an effective way of taking our foot off the gas on worsening our "waste culture".

    Rethinking the packaging/container industry, which appears to be a considerable figure in the broad picture of "waste", would likely take a big load off the brunt of how much waste we produce. This could be done by re-introducing glass products as reusable containers, or perhaps some other product that would have the same effect.

    We went over a lot of current events today in class with our groups. Good to talk and learn with your peers

    We recommend a plague with no foreign assistance in a country with a very large population and a lower socioeconomic average. This may seem immoral and at the end of the day it is survival of the fittest for the betterment of the future of mankind as a whole. This huge cutback would give us the time we need to make necessary changes in our lifestyles and making all of these changes in one generation is nearly impossible. Sorry if this is messed up but I feel it is inevitable anyways with population explosions.
