Yevgenia Andres 10/30/2023 3:16 PMTaking walks everyday is so nice. I love seeing the trees change everyday I walk, also it’s a great way for my dog to get out too.-
Jeanne Poirier 10/30/2023 7:47 PMHope you use poop bags like I do whenever I have the awesome pleasure of walking my grand-dog. Too many folks don't realize the impact of pet poop.
My apologies to team-mate Lori who would use newspaper - I have found the poop qualities can be far too random to count on newspaper being enough to protect myself :). Sorry to be so frank! Enjoy the walks and may your dog enjoy the sniffs.

REFLECTION QUESTIONFood, Agriculture, and Land UseWhile dishing food out, we tend to load our plates with more than we need. Using smaller plates helps to mitigate this. Aside from the environmental benefits, what other benefits might come from eating/serving smaller portions?
Yevgenia Andres 10/06/2023 10:58 PMFood waste is one. Many people can't eat so just knowing that we are throwing it away and being ungrateful by throwing it away hurts even when we can't directly give those people our food we have on the plate. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONTransportationHow has your access to various kinds of transportation throughout your life influenced your current attitudes about transportation and your transportation behavior?
Yevgenia Andres 10/06/2023 10:57 PMI'm not going to lie I used to think the bus stops were going to be all gross because I had seen a lot of them nasty but most of them are pretty clean now. I don't mind riding Trimet, most of them are clean buses so I don't care about riding. -
Yevgenia Andres 10/06/2023 10:53 PMI do this everyday with my dog. He is an Australian Shepard and he gets me to walk anyways so I guess I have something to record it on now. -
