And we’ve done it. An entire month of trying to reduce the amount of plastic waste in our lives. This challenge has made me more aware of the places that plastic has crept into our lives unnecessarily, and I plan to build on what I learned during this past month and continue to reduce both my and my family’s reliance on plastic. 

Another day down, only one more to go. I can scarcely believe its been a whole month. 

Excited to see our point totals and how much plastic we didn’t use over the course of the month. 

Eye opening article on where our plastic ends up.

Just purchased bamboo toothbrushes for the family.

Dislike that you can "earn more points" by simply logging in each day or posting on feed. As someone who has tried to be environmentally conscious and greatly reduced their consumption for years, it's a very hollow act to log my actions. I could see how it can benefit and motivate those new to eco-consciousness, but I find it a bit off-putting.
