Maryland Zoo

Natural fibers don’t shed micro pieces of plastic into the environment and when it is time to dispose of them they will decompose naturally and safely 

I would save about2 lbs of food waste a week by composting and would have material to fertilize my gardens.    Just need to purchase a composting bin due to the various forms of wildlife in my area.  

There was really no need to buy a bulk bag of "mostly plastic" disposable razors. Steel razors worked just fine for my Dad. I should have "ditched the convenience" factor years ago and invested in a sustainable steel razor.

Making your own cleaning products is fairly straightforward and requires just a few ingredients. The difference in making your own products is they contain few "extras" which manufacturers add to extend shelf life. My, oh! my  .... there are so many essential oil fragrances to choose from🤗

Awesome. I've learned so much this year but the best takeaway is my new plastics free habit of using rubber gloves to remove my two kittens fur from Everywhere. 

Glad I could help with this challenge and support the the Maryland Zoo in Baltimore.
