Brandi's actions

Waste

Recycle Everything I Can

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 30 minutes researching and recycling all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.

COMPLETED 6
DAILY ACTIONS

Waste

Reduce Single-Use Disposables

Historically, marginalized and low-income communities live closer to landfills, contributing to a multitude of health problems. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate.

  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Go Paperless
    Reducing your paper mail can be such a freeing action to take -- by reducing what is coming in, you can reduce what is going into the recycling bin too. How does it make you feel? What is the next step you will take to reduce your waste?

    It will be great to not have to sort and make sure I recycle what can be recycled when it comes to junk mail. I tend to save coupon that seem like good deal, but I never really use them. so it make sense to just get rid of it all. I will continue to monitor my mail for things that I don't want to be receiving mailings on and find a way to stop it from coming to my mail box. and encourage others to do the same
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Reduce Single-Use Disposables
    Bringing your own bags and containers to the grocery store, and even to restaurants for leftovers, are a couple of ways to reduce your waste. What single-use items (e.g. straws, coffee cups, vegetable bags, plastic bags) do you regularly use? What could be substituted instead?

    I bought reusable utensils for my lunches at work and I only bring reusable water bottles. and coffee tumbers to work so cut back on one time use items.
