"My goal for Plastic free July is to really take time and see exactly how much plastic I am using without knowing and take the knowledge I gain during the month and pass it on to family and friends so that together we can keep the seas plastic free!"

Malik Beckett 7/03/2019 2:26 PMMy challenge is going well. It started off a little hard because I didnt realize the true extent to which we rely on plastic,and partly because my family thinks i'm a little crazy for telling them not to use Ziploc bags anymore. It will get easier with time and its all downhill from here on out!
