You'll be an Plastic Free Ecochallenge 2019 expert in no time!
"My mission is to find ways to keep the earth happier and healthier, and to push myself even further as an environmental advocate and educator!"
I will visit a local dump/transfer station, material recovery facility, and/or landfill to learn about the waste stream.
I will purchase meats and cheeses from the deli counter or a butcher shop, and use my own containers to do so.
I will conduct a waste audit - including recyclables and compost - to understand how much waste I create and where I can reduce the most.
I will make my environmental actions visible by posting to my social media networks.
I will pick up 3 piece(s) of litter each day.
I will watch a documentary film about waste with family and friends and talk about what we learned.
I will use deodorant either from a bar or a jar or I will make my own.
I will replace my soaps, shampoos, and conditions with either a bar or refillable option.
I will replace my disposable razors with steel razors. Why not try using hair conditioner instead of shaving foam for that baby smooth feel?
I will prepare 1 meal(s) at home each day without using any items packaged in single-use plastic.
Reflection, encouragement, and relationship building are all important aspects of getting a new habit to stick.
Share thoughts, encourage others, and reinforce positive new habits on the Feed.
To get started, share “your why.” Why did you join the challenge and choose the actions you did?
