Marta Szabatin

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.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will spend 30 minutes learning about food deserts and find out how I can advocate for healthy and fresh food in my region.

I will avoid sending 4 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 4 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper each day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided.

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

I will spend 30 minutes researching environmental justice concerns in my region, their causes, and local initiatives to address these concerns.

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

I will keep 2 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.
