This project was really interesting because it put a few things into perspective for me. Mostly my eating habits and how much I actually consume. Since I live off campus/at home, I try not to eat out a lot because it costs money. The week I documented I didn’t buy as much food as I thought, there were a lot of things that I didn’t know if I should’ve taken pictures of.
Most of my waste was made from food, food containers, etc. It was rarely anything else except for maybe, napkins and other paper. My biggest category was definitely plastic and the paper/cardboard boxes that food comes in.
A solution I can implement is maybe bringing food from home/cooking for myself as much as I can.
