Emily Pfeiffer-Russell

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

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

I will spend at least 7 minutes finding out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 7 minutes researching and recycling all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.
