No Impact: Day 2

Haven’t got many to say today, I’m very very tired!
The challenge of today was to turning down the heating with a degree, but wasn’t at home today. Left home at 6.30 and came home at 18:30.
Had some lessons in Tilburg today, and visited Yksi, Strijp and Piet Hein Eek in Eindhoven with school, gonna show you some pictures about it anyway. But not today, too tired. Oh, and by the way, we received the mail way to late, 10 o clock in the morning.. not so smart I think.

I’ll keep you updated!

No Impact: Day 1

Well, I’m a bit disappointed about this day.
School hasn’t take a very smart step I think, we received the mail about the No Impact week and the goal for today, yesterday.
It was a sunday, so I hadn’t any change to go to the market, supermarket or nature shop.

Did what I could do today, but it’s not enough anyway.
I’m not gonna save the environment and the planet with this behaviour and I want to make a change in my routines.
I made an appointment with myself, I’m gonna tell you what I eat today and what I can change to make it better.
Gonna do this day again next week, maybe every week. (Have an concept in my head, I’m gonna tell you more about it later, in another blogpost)

Breakfast 09:30
Bowl of skimmed yoghurt with chocolate cruesli (soya or bio yoghurt with homemade muesli)
Glass of water

Lunch  12:30
3 slices of waldkorn bread with skimmed cheese and apple syrup (spelt bread or crackers with hummus and vegetables)
Glass of tea

Snack 15:00
‘Eierkoek’ a sweet bread/cake slice (fruit, any raw food snack recipe)
Bottle of water (use an bobble)

Diner 18:30
Nasi with chicken and vegetables, peanut sauce and kroepoek
Glass of water

What went right?
Haven’t eat to much
Used only one plastic bag (ate my lunch at home before school)

What went wrong? 
Didn’t eat any biological products
Didn’t eat any fruit and too less vegetables
Used meat in my dish

I’m really motivated to eat conscious and healthy, because of Jolijn’s website: http://www.vegadutchie.nl
I’m going to write about her later, she is amazing!

No Impact Week

Goodmorning this beautiful morning!
The sun is shining, it’s gonna be around 15 degrees and I only have to go to school from 3 till 5.
So, I have time to blog. I’m gonna tell you about the No Impact Week!

Today the No Impact Week has started and everyday I’m going to blog about it.
What is it? NO IMPACT! You have to be careful and with the environment.
So this week you  I have to make less impact on the environment as I can.
Go biking and take the train instead of polluting the air with all thoses dangerous gasses from scooters and cars,
take your bread in a lunchbox instead of wrapping it in aluminum foil or worse: in plastic bags!
Don’t buy anything this week, not even a little candybar,  NO IMPACT AT ALL!
Everyday is in another theme, so today is about Food, and mindful eating.
Gonna keep you updated this evening.

Some pictures to motivate myself a little bit:
