    Recently completed a Restorative Justice training with RJMP. I am very interested in the core underlying principles of restorative justice which is focused on reconcillation and repair over punishment. I am interested in incorporating this principles more into our work at CEO, and have a plan to brainstorm with other staff on how we could implement more of this into our current processes.

    How do you experience your neighborhood or city differently when walking instead of driving?

    Working on making a habit of doing a short walk outside after dinner. Last night I did this with my roommate.

  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste
    What do you do if you find yourself in the situation of needing a bag for items but don't have a reusable one with you or aren't allowed to use the one you brought? Carry things out in your hands? In a cart? Accept a disposable one? If you find yourself in this position often, what system could you put in place to try to create a successful habit of not using plastic bags?

    I typically have my reusable bags in the car but forget to bring them in the store. Since starting this challenge I have been carrying things out rather than accept a disposable, then put things in my bag once I get out to the car.
