REFLECTION QUESTION
Food Cook a Zero-Plastic Waste Meal

Do an inventory of your kitchen to see how many single-use plastics you've used in the past. What are some resuable alternatives to these commonly used products? What would your impact be if you switched all the single-use products from your inventory to reusable?

Community Join a Cleanup Effort

How does working with others to clean up your community make you feel?

It's a mix of feelings - cleaning up our surroundings feels good, but man it pisses me off that people still think it's okay to leave their garbage all over the place.

Only two more days until the official challenge starts. Today I went grocery shopping for an upcoming camping trip and I was actually amazed at how much plastic is everywhere. This really will be a challenge.
