Taking time to make bread at home would help me reduce plastic bags in my home. I will commit to making bread this next month rather than buying bread, buns, or other bread-like products from the store.

I purchased a reusable cloth to use in place of paper towels. My next step is to use cloth napkins.

I joined to learn to how make more of an impact. Have always recycled. 2 years ago I made a big effort to do much more to decrease our use of plastics. I've done well, but there's always more to do.

So far it’s great. I’m enjoying learning new things!

We are returning to our home brewed simple vinegar cleaner when the current box of disposable wipes we reverted to when our first baby arrived runs out.

We hand wash sweaters and wool items at home and lay flat to dry. We only dry clean items that are labeled dry clean only like moleskin and some family heirloom afghans. We also only use local shops that do not use any harsh chemicals for their processing.
