I think it is important to share something positive vs. telling people they should do something differently or shaming them, so I try to talk about/advocate for products with less packaging and ways I have found to reduce waste.

It is fighting to make sure everyone has a safe place to live and work. It makes me sad to look at my own community and I see where the land-fill and water management facilities are located.

When I was in high school and college, I had fun making clothes with my mom out of sheets my brothers and I had as kids that had characters from different shows and movies on them. We would cut the characters out and use them as patches on sweatshirts and other clothing. I also make jewelry and bought earrings that have a loop below the post...
