So far I am doing pretty well with my ecological footprint. I rode the bus the other day to school instead of driving, which is by no means easy for me. I love driving my car so this has always been tough for me to do. This week instead of having steak like I usually do, I am having halibut for dinner. It is still meat, but it does not have the same effect on my footprint that steak would have. This week when I went to the grocery store all of the produce I purchased was organic. I have already changed all of the lightbulbs in my apartment to energy efficient ones, so this goal for now is pretty much done. I am going to try and convince my parents to do the same, but I think they already have energy efficient lightbulbs throughout the house. I have decided to add another goal to my previous three. I am going to try and bring reusable bags to the grocery store instead of constantly using their plastic bags. I think the hardest part of this will be remembering to bring the bags to the grocery store. I am trying to come up with some more ways to lower my impact, but haven't come up with too many feasible ideas yet.
