Week 1 Topic

 First week of environmental science class and the topic was about sustainability. Sustainability is how humans can be able to responsibly manage out resources without depleting it for other generations to come. It can be from the from the smallest and biggest changes in a lifestyle, like reusing plastic bag from a super market to cutting back on things you want like shower time. After learning about sustainability I found it very intriguing because I found out a lot of ways how I can manage using my everyday resources in a responsible manageable way. I learned from my peers examples of sustainability that I can unplug plus from outlets when not using them, turning off unusable bulbs and lamps, turning off the fosset when brushing your teeth or washing dishes and many many more. Learning about this makes me look back at the times I've selfishly  used energy and think of the uncomprehendable amount of water and energy that could of been in proper use. Other then putting energy to waste, I would enjoy learning about other things then energy that can be managed responsibly.
