Overall Idea

For the remainder of the semester, each group in our Global Experience class is given a different challenge. Our groups' goal is to limit the money that we each spend on a daily basis. We are being challenged to reuse items and make the most of what we already have, instead of buying unnecessary items.

Closing Post

In conclusion to this cut back on consumption, I have realized that I really do not spend my money on more material items.  The things I spent the most money on is gasoline and food.  I drove my car maybe twice a week and I have filled up my 12 gallon car twice since this blog was started.  I have not spent money on anything else.  Just yesterday I had to build a lamp shade and instead of going to buy art supplies or using up toxic chemicals I made my lampshade out of yarn and some twigs I found on the ground and it came out pretty well.  I will try and continue this low consumption lifestyle and will be starting off the summer by traveling to Washington state and working on an organic farm for three weeks.  Bye, Lorax
