Caryn Fosnaugh

I will try new recipe(s) or food preparation method(s) each day, such as canning, pickling, making yogurt, or baking granola bars or bread.

I will prepare 1 meal(s) at home each day without using any items packaged in single-use plastic.

I will only buy cloth, wooden or plant-based natural rubber toys. Or make our own toys from recycled items found in our home!

I will give my pets natural alternatives to toys like femur bones and antlers, canvas, natural rubber, hemp, rope or cotton toys. Or I will make our own toys from recycled items found in our home!

I will replace my disposable razors with steel razors. Why not try using hair conditioner instead of shaving foam for that baby smooth feel?

I will replace 2 plastic bottles with glass or stainless steel alternatives.

I will host or participate in a beach, highway, river, or other cleanup effort in my community.

I will raise money to support a nonprofit dedicated to plastic pollution reduction.

I will purchase refillable beauty products.

I will avoid buying toxic plastics, including polycarbonate, polystyrene and polyvinyl.

I will visit a local dump/transfer station, material recovery facility, and/or landfill to learn about the waste stream.

I will purchase toothpaste in an aluminum tube or in a glass jar or make my own!

I will make my environmental actions visible by posting to my social media networks.
