Waste Use a Reusable Mug

Maybe you've heard how good it is to switch from a single use coffee cup to a reuseable one but it's just hard to make the switch. Think about what stands in your way of making this a habit. By identifying the challenges, you can begin to work through them to have better success in taking this action. Knowing the difference you are making, how does it make you feel?

I keep a large thermos with a screw-on top at my desk and fill it with water at work so i don't have to buy bottled water. Same goes for at home.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Waste Use Reusable Bags

What 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?

Andrew Craig 10/04/2018 9:31 AM

We keep a box in our car with extra reusable bags that we've collected over the years so that we always have some when we go to the grocery store. If nothing else than carry as much as you can in your hands.
