Brittney Halstrom 10/23/2017 6:55 PMSo I deleted my instagram app because I seriously cannot be trusted. After doing an energy audit, I insulated my huge drafty windows with plastic to save on heating this winter. I am coming to the conclusion I eat out WAY too often which uses lots of plastic/unrecyclables so I bought myself an insulated soup container. I am going to work on bringing that with me for lunches at school from now on. At first, I thought the idea of getting fake points for being eco-conscious was really silly but I have learned a lot and I'm glad I did it! Thanks Green Team for doing this. I wish one of the prizes was Prius!-
