🌱 How to Live More Sustainably 🌿

🌊 Five Easy Changes to Make Today 🌍

Carry a reusable cup 🥛☕️🥤
You might prefer having one cup that does it all, or maybe you want a bottle for water and separate hot and cold containers. Just anticipate your needs and bring them with you. Promise yourself you won't prioritize convenience over the planet and don't turn back.
Change how you shop for groceries 🍋🍒🥒
Bring reusable bags (ones for produce too!), shop locally at a farmer's market, eat less meat, and don't buy more than you can eat.
Change how you shop for clothing 🧥👔🧦
Fast fashion is not only harmful to the environment, it is inhumane to the workers who make the clothes. Buy high quality garments that will hold up over time. Spend more on timeless purchases rather than continually spending on clothes that will only last a season. If you have a shopping urge, try shopping second hand!
Walk, bike, or use public transportation 🚶🏽‍♀️🚲🚞
If you can't completely change how you commute, think about what you can do. If it is within a mile from your home, can you walk? Can you carpool more often?
Reduce, reuse, recycle 💚♻️🗑
If you have to buy single-use products, make sure you are recycling what you can. Recyling plastics can be especially tricky. You'll need to do two things: Research what plastics your local recycling program will accept (this is why plastics have a number on them!) and always clean out what you are recycling.
