Jo Walter

I will prevent water runoff and increase absorbency by mulching the base of plants and trees at my home or work.

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

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

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 visit seafoodwatch.org or download the app and commit to making better seafood choices for a healthier ocean.

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