Marissa's actions
Waste
Visit a Waste Management Facility
I will spend at least 30 minutes visiting a local dump/transfer station, material recovery facility, and/or landfill to learn about the waste stream.
Nature
Explore My Area
I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.
Waste
Skip the Straw
Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.
Simplicity
Meditate
I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 5 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.
Health
Happiness
I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.
Create Your Own Action
I will not use plastic ziplock bags or I will reuse them
I oftentimes use ziplock bags to bring snacks on the go. I always throw them away after one use. This is adding extra plastic into landfills. I would like to stop adding to plastic pollution.
