I haven't written anything about the environment in a few days and that's because I took the week off. Noticing everything got really stressful and I got pretty overwhelmed so I gave myself a few days off. That's not to say I've forgotten everything but some products around the house need to be used up before I can switch and we still need running water so while I figure out some stuff and conduct some research, I've tried to stress less and keep looking for alternatives.
I've started keeping a mental list of food products that will need to be replaced. Among the worst culprits are bread and feta cheese. They come in plastic but of course there are alternatives. I'd like to find a good bakery (it's weird how I actually don't know where any of them are) and a place that sells feta and tofu by weight. I know where to get tofu and I've found a place that sells feta too! It's an Oriental/Middle Eastern store right on Hämeenkatu! (Right near Maruseki) I'll look next time to see what it's called.
Alright, so here's the challenge I was referring to in the title of this post:
Measure your eco-footprint! I used to hate these quizes and would just never do them. We had to do it for Social Context of Business once and I was dreading it. But this time, I went looking for the calculator on my own. I tried to estimate some stuff but need to learn more about heating and electricity because I'm not usually the one who pays that bill. Still, it's good to start somewhere:
