Maryland Zoo

Hey - sorry I didn't get to enter my participation for the last week... traveling and didn't have a chance before the end of the month... if there is a way to get back in to update my activities from last week (I learned a lot from the research links provided and I know that adds bigger points than just trash and straws), please send along....

Great job team! We finished in first once again!

I did know a few things about the numbers on plastic items, but still learned a lot. The best way to help our environment is to limit the amount of plastic we use every day.

I can’t believe we did it for the 6th year running, Team Maryland Zoo! awesome job helping to save the planet, one plastic item at a time!!

I learned I have a long way to go to reduce my footprint, but I am making progress every day.

Last day! What a great July. Hoping to keep up a lot of these for the whole year.

Last day of No Plastic July, but I just ordered more dryer balls and no plastic toilet bowl cleaner from Free the Ocean since 100% of today’s sales will go in support penguins in their native range!! Check them out!

It's the last day of July, but I'm excited to keep up my actions beyond this month.

Researching the sources of companies' bottled water to make sure it comes from a source that is not exploiting local communities - it wasn't something I'd given much thought to before hearing stories in the news
