REFLECTION QUESTIONFood Use Reusables at WorkIt is often true that we only have control over our own actions and not the collective community. How can you lead by example when it comes to switching disposables for reusable dishes in your community?
Christopher Butler 7/18/2019 3:26 PMThe zoo makes using reusable dishes easy as they are always there in the beastro. Sometimes I will forget but seeing someone else grab a plate reminds me so when I grab one I think it works in a similar way. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONFood Use Reusable BagsHow difficult was this challenge for you? What made it easy or difficult?
Christopher Butler 7/09/2019 8:24 PMThis was a really easy one. My bags are bigger than the plastic ones so it takes so many less bags for things. -
