Assignment #3 (due 9.20)

Begin brainstorming the words and phrases which will represent each part of your Ecological Identity Tree: (1) origin of your environmental behavior (roots), (2) environmental core values (trunk), and (3) environmental actions (leaves/branches). Bring your brainstorm list to class on 9.20, noting that you will have time in class that day to work on your tree design.

Example:
One of the origins of your environmental behaviors (roots) might be time that you spent hiking with your family or friends as a younger person or the first beautiful sunrise you ever witnessed.

One of your environmental core values (trunk) might be the importance of being a good environmental steward or ensuring that all people have access to clean drinking water.

One of your environment actions (leaves/branches) might be the fact that you recycle at home or bring reusable lunch containers to school every day.
