    Using a reusable mug is an awesome way to cut down on paper cups. Today I discovered Starbucks fills any mugs with their coffee so I think I'm going to continue this after the challenge

    Today I decided to go for a walk and get some fresh air. I discovered I love right down the street from Magnolia Park. It's not very big but it adds a little nature back into the urban area

    After doing an energy audit I have discovered that there are several ways in which I can help reduce the energy that I consume. By changing the way settings on my thermostat, light settings, and making sure I turn off all my electronics I can help reduce my energy/ carbon footprint.

    Changing out my old lightbulbs  was a quick and easy way to help curb my electricity use and was fairly cheap when I totaled everything up
