Heather's actions
Energy
Heat and Cool Naturally
I will naturally heat and cool my house, office, or dorm room by opening or closing my windows, curtains, and blinds, and by using fans.
Simplicity
Track my Purchases
I will spend 30 minutes each day maintaining a record of all my purchases and learning about my spending habits.
Waste
Use Reusable Bags
I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.
Waste
Skip the Straw
Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

REFLECTION QUESTIONWasteWhat do you do if you find yourself in the situation of needing a bag for items but don't have a reuseable one with you? Carry things out in your hands? In a cart? Accept a disposable one? If you find yourself in this position often, what system could you put in place to try to establish this a successful habit?
Heather Barkee 10/03/2018 4:52 PMIf I have to use a disposable bag, I will reuse it around my house. That may be a as a trash bag or to pack food in so it doesn't make any messes in my fridge.
