REFLECTION QUESTIONAt HomeWhat kinds of items have been easy for you to find used? What has been hard?
Isaiah Jorgenson 2/05/2026 7:59 AMIt has been easy to find many different used shirts and shorts. However, in order to find socks that aren't all torn up are very hard to find so I often have to buy new ones. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONOn-the-goHave you noticed a shift in your community as more messaging about reusable straws becomes mainstream? Cite some examples.
Isaiah Jorgenson 2/05/2026 7:57 AMYes, I see less waste in the trash can while I go take out the trash. I also see people feel better about themself for not using wasteful plastic straws. -
Isaiah Jorgenson 1/16/2026 12:01 PMToday I decided to cut out all plastic straws and went to Target to buy metal straws. This should cut down on plastic waste within my house.-
