Kristen's actions
At Home
Reuse Trash Bags Instead of Purchasing New
I will reuse existing bags such as pet food bags, grocery bags, or online shopping bags instead of buying any new bags to line my trash containers.
Food
Stop Buying Water
I will stop buying water and instead use water from the tap or invest in a water filter if water quality is a concern.

Recycle Plastic Bags
Instead of trashing them, I will recycle 5 plastic bags per day bringing them to a drop-off or special pickup

Complete a waste audit
I will spend 30 minutes conducting a waste audit- including recyclables and compost- to understand how much plastic waste I create and where I can reduce the most.
