No Impact Week

So during No Impact Week, I decided to go bold and try really hard to convince myself to use less trash items. I also tried not go without using a dryer for my laundry day. I used the bars that are on the stands that hold my bed up (because it's lofted) and it made our room smell like a magial field of sunflowers.. not really, but it did smell good. :) I visited the famers market and looked around for a bit, but i didn't leave with anything. It was crazy how easy it was to help the environment so i'm deffinately going to do it more!

Reading No Impact Man changed how I looked at things tremendously. I never even realized how many lives are in danger because of carelessness. Learning about the poor sea turtles dying from eating plastic bags broke my heart :/ I'm hopefully going to sign up for this travel thing that lets you go to a different country and volunteer with the sea turtle conservation! I also couldn't believe how much cars give off! I felt SOO bad having to drive 4 and 1/2 hours home.. whoops. But most importantly, I learned that you can stop hurting the environment, but you also need to help out to make up for other people.. but one person cant save the world.. that's why we need to unite to save the world! We should all come up with special super hero names and cool different environmentally friendly powers that help! Just kidding.. but seriously, great book! :)
