Brenna Lynn's actions
Personal Care
Lather Up
I will replace my soaps, shampoos, and conditions with either a bar or refillable option.

That Was a Close Shave

Food
Lobby for Reusables
I will lobby my workplace to have reusable dishes and silverware in order to minimize disposables.
Personal Care
See the Green
I will properly recycle used contact lenses and packaging.

Pretty oh so Pretty

Advocate For More Food Packaging Options
I will advocate for alternatives to single use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, or work.
Food
Visit the Butcher
I will purchase meats and cheeses from the deli counter or a butcher shop, and use my own containers to do so.

Naked Bins
I will either line my trash cans with repurposed newspaper or paper bags, or I will not line my trash cans at all.

Complete a Waste Audit

Brenna Lynn Belcher 7/03/2019 7:29 AMJust a friendly reminder to help keep our springs beautiful! Always pack re-usable containers to avoid the chance of adding to the plastic or other single use container waste in our rivers. -
Brenna Lynn Belcher 6/25/2019 6:03 PMToday I did not have my reusable grocery bags in my car or on me, so I opted for one paper bag at the register. I like to shop with Publix knowing they offer the option to choose paper bags at checkout. -
