Resolutions: 2010!

What are everyone's 2010 eco-resolutions?

Here are mine:

1. Sustainability in the classroom: This spring I'll be student teaching. With any luck, I'll be teaching full-time in the fall. Therefore, I'd like to take my knowledge and passion about sustainability into my classroom to share it with my students. One of the biggest goals of social studies is to give students the tools they need for getting along in today's world. There are no more important tools that those that help ensure there's still a "world" to get along in.

2. Write in the neighborhood newsletter: I wrote a short article on wise water use for the fall newsletter our neighborhood does. I'd like to write on other green topics for the newsletter this coming year.

3. Curb our take-out food addiction: Ben and I have never had a problem with take-out foods until this year. It's frustrating since in most other parts of our lives we've been living more sustainably! This year, I resolve to slowly but surely get our rate of consumption of meals that require disposable containers to once a week.
