UCF Sustainability Training Series

Spoke with a former colleague at another school about Sustainability and the course.  We had a lengthy talk about sustainability's value.  Many folks know it's important and yet do they take the time to actually apply it in their own lives. 

Ways I can make my ecological footprint smaller is:  1) eat less beef, 2) I use a tower garden to grow veges and herbs, this uses no soil, chemicals and recycles water to water the plants, 3) eat more organic foods, 4) I do not use a plastic water bottle any longer, and I will bring my canvas bags to shop with instead of plastic ones.

I would like to change the mindset people have about throwing plastics out, especially near the oceans.

I have meatless meals all this week

Reused my water bottle again - never use any plastic today

I  ate a totally organic meal last night, that I grew myself and the meat I ate I harvested wild myself.   I joined this group and class to learn more about water and food sustainability. I would also consider being on a board and volunteering for other sustainability programs.
