I agree the discussions were a great way to learn and express ourselves!

You reflection is so insightful!

Best of luck in making positive changes!

I also agree that it all starts with awareness and understanding.

I agree I also had a great experience with this class!

This is a method I found online... "The first part of the ecological burial method involves removing the water that makes up 70% of the human body. To do this, the company freeze-dries the corpse in liquid nitrogen within a week and a half after death. The corpse is first frozen to -18°C (0°F) and then submerged in liquid nitrogen. Next, sound waves at a specific amplitude vibrate the brittle corpse, transforming it into an organic white powder. The powder is sent through a vacuum chamber that evaporates the water, greatly decreasing the corpse’s mass. If the person had metal surgical implants, a metal separator can remove these parts from the dry powder. If required, the powder can also be disinfected. At this point, the organic powder is hygienic and odorless, and the remains can either be cremated or buried."

I didn't know bodies could be used to grow corals! That's amazing!

I agree increasing awareness of different options death care practices is a great idea!

I agree that wildlife shouldn't be sacrificed for our selfish actions!

I agree parental education is very important for a child's wellbeing so increasing awareness on the importance of being reasonably 'dirty' is a great idea!

Lovely post Cindy! We must work together to save our world!

I like your idea of bringing your own containers to take out food at restaurants!

I am also a victim to greenwashing :( and I hope greenwashing no longer exists in the future.

I agree! Funding research projects regarding the effects of plastic could be a great start to changing our future.

Me too! I feel bad about buying things wrapped in loads of plastic and I hope we no longer need to worry about it in the future.

Wow! I haven't thought about this issue that way before. I agree, it's absurd to still allow production of such products after knowing the risks.

I totally agree with having a redistribution of wealth! I wonder how things will be once that happens.

I agree! It would be nice for companies to do things because they actually care about certain issues.

I agree with transparent donations! It would be nice to know where those large amounts of money actually go.

I agree! Being able to actually know the products you're buying is something that should be normal.
