Daily Update #6


This is our 6th Daily Update! Have you checked out our previous updates?? ~J

Did you know....
Machinery within agriculture can use up finite resources and cause us to have less resources. Machinery uses up finite resources like fossil fuels which we need to use. Agriculture uses up finite resources like land and water which are even more important for us to have. It was stated that agriculture uses up 38% of the land have and 70% of freshwater.  We need to be careful in how much we use these finite resources as we have a limited amount of them.

Daily Updates #5


Fifth day of daily update! Please just try to give yourself a challenge or a chance to change! ~C

Give yourself a treat and go out picking for food!
You can make plans to go picking for anything that is in season!
This will mean that less machinery is being used for picking fruits,
thus using less finite resources. You are also not using plastic
that are used to package fruits and also helping to not use finite
resource within agriculture.
