Danielle's actions
Water
Say No to Plastic Straws
An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 5 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.
Water
Conserve Toilet Water
I will save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.
Water
5-Minute Showers
I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.
Nature
Go for a Daily Walk
I will take a 30-minute walk outside each day.
Nature
Enjoy the Sunrise/Sunset
I will enjoy the sunrise and/or sunset each day.

REFLECTION QUESTIONWater Say No to Plastic StrawsWhat single-use items (e.g. straws, coffee cups, vegetable bags, plastic bags) do you regularly use? What could be substituted instead?
Danielle Goddard 10/04/2018 7:57 AMI use straws a lot but I recently bought steel straws that I can reuse. I do use a lot of plastic bags when it comes to grocery shopping or anythinf. I have looked into purchasing a reusable bag but have not got around to it yet. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONWater 5-Minute ShowersFive minute showers are an impressive step toward reducing your water footprint. What is the next step you can take?
Danielle Goddard 10/04/2018 7:56 AMJust being cautious about the problem will make an enormous change. I will try to watch myself and make sure i turn off the water or only take cold showers so I don’t waste the time trying to heat it up, ect. -
