Sylva Menard

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.

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 45 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard.

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by opting into paperless billing and ending unwanted subscriptions.

I will advocate for alternatives to single-use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, at work, or on campus.

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