What are your thoughts & opinion about environmentalism?
Growing up in California, being conscientious about how I interacted with the environment was something I learned at a young age. At my house we always made sure to recycle and compost materials that could be disposed of as such and during the summer we usually had a garden. As kids we also were encouraged to spend lots of time outside and my family enjoyed going on camping trips and hikes around our neighborhood. Also because California has been in a drought for the majority of the past 20 years we were also taught about the importance of conserving water and recently my family redid the front yard to have more plants that need less water and that are native to California. I have made an effort to keep up some of these habits. I'm an active recycler despite the challenge of finding a place to recycle here in Utah. I am trying to be better about buying things locally and to buy produce in season. I know I'm not always the best at keeping these habits up, but they are very important to me and I do consider myself to be at least environmentally conscious and I'm striving to be better about this.
