I am hoping to show you a "whole new world" of apps! So on my journey of trying to be a conscious consumer I thought to myself "what 'green' apps are available?" To download an app is to do something so passive to help the world, but I thought on my truly bum days when I'm not doing much to save the world I can do some good on the following Apps. I hope they are able to help you in some way! as an added bonus you can search this app on Ecosia, a search engine that donates money to build trees from their ads!


1. I <3 OLIO

For my friends who care about food waste! I heart OLIO is an app that connects neighbors with each other and with local shops so surplus food and other items can be shared, not thrown away.If you love food, hate waste, care about the environment or want to connect with your community, OLIO is for you.

2. IRecycle


For my friends who want to bump up their Reduce, Reuse & Recycling! IRecycle is an app for finding local (United States Only), convenient recycling opportunities when you are on the go or at home. iRecycle provides access to more than 1,600,000 ways to recycle over 350 materials in the United States.

3. Joulebug


For my friends who are interested in sustainable life choices! JouleBug is the easy way to make your everyday habits more sustainable, at home, work, and play. Discover how you and your friends can use resources—without using them up.

4. GrowIt

For my friends with a green thumb! Growit lets you Garden Socially, for free. Whether you want to show off your plants, or find something that will work in your garden there's something for every type of gardener.


5.Seafood Watch


For my meat eating friends! The app Seafood Watch is an easier than ever way to get the latest recommendations for seafood and sushi, learn more about the seafood you eat and locate or share businesses that serve sustainable seafood.


Even if I didn't blow your mind I am hoping that you gained some knowledge about Sustainable Apps that can passively help the Earth.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
