Katie's Actions
Belongings
Needs vs. Wants
I will adopt a "Needs vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.
On-the-go
Skip the Straw
I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.
Pets
Clean Up Pet Hair with Reusables
I will use a reusable lint brush or vacuum to remove pet hair from clothes, carpets and furniture.
Food
Properly Store Food
I will store food and organize my fridge based on best practices to prevent food from spoiling before it is used.
Food
Be Smart About Food Labels
I will learn about food labels and not throw food out just based on date on the package, but instead check the smell and color to see if it has gone bad.
Food
Buy Unpackaged Produce
I will avoid 2 plastic bags by not bagging my produce or using reusable produce bags.
Week 1 Focus: Recycling and Composting
Recycle Plastic Bags
Instead of trashing them, I will recycle 2 plastic bags by bringing them to a drop-off.
