According to sustainability.pulicrado.org I am making some right choices but it would still take 3.4 earths to sustain all the people on the planet if they lived just like me. I have to laugh at this! I am a single parent living on a small income so I am frugal with electricity, gas and things as such. When I am out of money I am out! I try to make it last as long as I possibly can by not taking leisure trips and by making as much out of every trip I do take.
I reuse the same water bottle over and over, I try to eat as many fruits and veggies as I can and reduce comsumption of electricity by eating out where someone else is going to use the power whether I am there or not. OK that is just a little joke. I do recycle when I can but not as often as I should. The reason for this is that I can not put things outside of my condo and dont have room in it to sort everything. I will rethink this.
There is alot of waste in the packaging of things, but again I try to eat more fresh foods and in fact prefer to buy them from local farmers markets or the flea market. There is no doubt that I could not make more changes to be more eco friendly and I will implement a plan to do just that. These are things that my 8 year old loves to do too so we can make it a family project!
