Update of my sustainability efforts

This past week I have been working harder on my footprint. Last week I rode the bus twice to school, which is actually a big step for me because I drove every day last year to school. This is not too easy for me to do since my car is something I use every day and I truly enjoy driving. I went and bought some energy efficient light bulbs to replace some of the ones we have in our apartment right now. I have not changed all of them yet but I do plan to throughout the next couple weeks. The one I am having the most trouble with is eating in a more sustainable way. I enjoy the foods I already eat and I am a slightly picky eater so changing this will definately be a challenge for me. When I went to the grocery store this week though, all of the produce I bought was organic. It was a little more expensive compared to the regular stuff, but it all tastes the same to me. Overall, I feel I am doing a little better with my footprint. I am interested to see how my score will change at the end of the quarter.
