I am now in the fourth week of my green journey and I feel my lifestyle has become substantially greener. I no longer take three showers a day, and my shower time has been cut down from 15 minutes to 8 or 9. The weather is still cold so I have not been using walking or biking as much as a mode of transportation, but when the weather is warmer I will. I no longer drink bottled water if I can avoid it, and if I do, I refill the bottle as much as I can throughout the day before recycling it. I wrap the presents I give with newspaper-comics facing out (so it is colorful). I now organize carpools with groups of my piers when I know we are all going to the same place. Overall, I have gained an appreciation for the environment and nature as a whole by simply making myself more aware of my actions' impact on the environment. This green journey has been good for me so far, however it hasn't been good just for me, but for the environment as well.
