    I think that finding other small ways to reduce water use is helpful. I probably still have some ways to improve on this one.

    I spent some time learning about boat noise impacts. It would be very tough to have to rely on sound to find food and for communication and then be interrupted or muffled.

    As someone who loves to eat, food deserts make me really sad.

    It's been nice to see the trees changing colors. The birds were very chirpy today too.

    Enjoyed giving a virtual presentation on Orcas to a classroom of middle school students today.  They had great questions and inspired me!

    I am fortunate that I do not have many barriers to using a reusable bottle - I will do most anything to avoid purchasing a drink in a plastic bottle! The only barrier is my forgetfulness - or if refilling my water bottle isn't possible due to the pandemic/public health restrictions.
