REFLECTION QUESTIONCommunity Keep My Community CleanHow does the act of picking up litter connect you more to your community?
Susan Magee 7/17/2019 4:25 PMI like to think I'm setting an example in my neighborhood. I talk to the kids that go to the local elementary school about recycling. I know my neighbors notice when I am walking my dogs in the early morning... going out with the dogs, coming back with the dogs AND a bag of recyclables and other litter. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONFood Use Reusable BagsHow difficult was this challenge for you? What made it easy or difficult?
Susan Magee 7/17/2019 4:21 PMNot difficult at all. I've been using my own bags for a long time. If I forget to take one into the store I either carry my purchases out in my arms or in the basket... my bags are always in the car.
