REFLECTION QUESTIONPersonal Care Pretty oh so PrettyHow can you advocate for the importance of reducing packaging to the rest of your friends, family and larger community?
Cindy Phillips 7/16/2019 7:50 AMThis my big focus for the month of July. Over the past 6 months, I’ve been slowly using up makeup and lotion that are in plastic containers. I’ve been researching products that come in tins and bottles and are made from organic materials. Today I should receive mascara and foundation in the mail from vendors I found on Etsy. One of the vendors is actually located right here in Spokane! Can’t wait to try them out and start thinking about what’s next! -
REFLECTION QUESTIONFood Use a Reusable Mug / Collapsible CupGreat job on getting rid of your disposable cup habit! How does it make you feel? What's next on your list to reduce your waste?
Cindy Phillips 7/16/2019 7:47 AMI’ve avoided getting coffee or other beverages if I don’t have my travel cup with me. It feels good to be intentional. I’m still struggling with the cold cups - even though they are recyclable, it would make more sense to carry my reuseable one. I’m going to work on that next.
