Laura Jenney

I will prepare 2 meal(s) at home each day without using any items packaged in single-use plastic.

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 pick up 4 piece(s) of litter each day.

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

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 keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will replace my plastic toothbrush with a bamboo toothbrush.

I will purchase meats and cheeses from the deli counter or a butcher shop, and use my own containers to do so.

I will replace my soaps, shampoos, and conditions with either a bar or refillable option.

I will advocate for alternatives to single use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, or work.
