There aren't very many barriers to me using tap instead of bottled. The issue I run into more than bottled water, are the bottled flavor waters. I enjoy those vitamin waters that come in the plastic bottle form. Although, to decrease my consumption of these, I can look for other alternatives for vitamins and flavor so that I can create my own version in a reusable bottle.

This statistic can describe my own transportation habits unfortunatly. I tend to find myself get easily stuck in the convenience of taking my car instead of walking. In order to incorporate a more physical transportation approach, I can choose to make the walk to campus on days that I have time to do that. Or trying to choose carpool options when needed instead of taking more vehicles than maybe needed.

No this doesn't surprise me because of food that I have unfortunately needed to throw away because I didn't eat it before it went bad. Being a student, working, and in an athletic club, I am a lot busier than I realize when I'm at the grocery store purchasing groceries for the upcoming couple of weeks. Recently though, I have resorted to freezing items that can be frozen so that they last longer. For example, I was buying bread only for me to have to throw away half a loaf when it got moldy. Although, when I bring my groceries home for the store, I immediately take half of the loaf out of the bag and properly store it in my freezer. There are many wants that I could spend this amount of money on, but I would have to say that I would put that money towards paying off my student loans to lessen the amount of interest that will incur on them.
