Mad MagicMe

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.

I will purchase produce and meat from a local farmers market or food co-op.

I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning, pickling, or baking bread.

I will visit my nearest farm to find out who produces my food, and will learn about the quality of life of those who produce my food in other regions of the world to make better choices when I shop.

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.

I will take a 15-minute walk outside each day.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will commute by bike 2 mile(s) each day and avoid sending up to (___) lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.
