    I've changed all my lightbulbs in my apartment to low-EGY LED.  If there's any I'm missing because I never use that light, I'll be sure to change it out when I do!

    I came from Los Angeles where at one point my wife and I had 3 cars between the two of us.  Since moving to SG in 2015 we have had zero cars and rely heavily on public transport.  I can honestly say it's the first time I really used public transport consistently in my life.  It's great how well it works in SG!

    It is hard to source 20% of locally grown foods in Singapore.  However we get green leafy veggies in the market.

    Why do people in richer countries eat more meat than people in other places? How does eating more meat affect our bodies, our planet, and other people?

    Indian homemade meals are mostly meatless.  I had home cooked meal for both lunch and dinner.

    This is easy as we use peanut oil and rarely drink coffee.  Now I decided to complete stop drinking coffee.
