Joy's actions
Food
Use Reusable Bags
I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases, including produce bags.
Pets
Homemade Pet Food/Treats
I will prepare my own pet food and treats to avoid plastic packaging.
Pets
Rubber Glove Pet Hair Removal
I will use a rubber glove to remove pet hair from clothes, carpets and furniture.
Personal Care
Pretty oh so Pretty
I will purchase beauty products that are packaged in sustainable packaging.
Lifestyle
Natural Fibers
When available, I will purchase clothing made with natural fibers, such as cotton, linen, or wool, rather than synthetic fibers.
Lifestyle
Naked Bins
I will either line my trash cans with repurposed newspaper or paper bags, or I will not line my trash cans at all.
Pets
All Natural Pet Toys
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!
Personal Care
That Was a Close Shave
I will replace my disposable razors with steel razors. Why not try using hair conditioner instead of shaving foam for that baby smooth feel?
Pets
Invest in a Pooper-Scooper
I will swap out my single use plastic bags for a pooper-scooper.

REFLECTION QUESTIONLifestyle Natural FibersWhat are the benefits (to people, animals, and the environment) of purchasing clothes made with natural fibers?
Joy Le Page 7/08/2019 9:58 AMI know that once I am done with them, they will not be on this planet for as long as clothes made from synthetic fibers. I had previously never even thought of this in regards to clothing! I'm so glad I signed up for this challenge, as I am learning so much.
