Plastic Free @ Monterey Bay Aquarium

I love going to thrift stores because it is like shopping at a hundred stores in one! So many unique items and brands and you never know what you will find.

I've been in a rut and sad to see so many people in our community complaining about litter and dog poop. This challenge was just what I needed to provide that extra motivational push to not complain, just take action and pickup the litter, scoop the poop and dispose of properly. Seeing a clean neighborhood feels nice and there isn't nearly as...

I am using a refillable bottle for my water

I found a nearby store that takes all clean plastic bags, wraps and mailers.

Thanks to this eco challenge for giving me a roadmap to reducing my personal plastic use and to collectively support global plastic free solutions!

Wishing all of our albatross friends plastic-free bellies full of squid!

Ugh, it's so hard to be 100% plastic free. Wanted to not buy herbs in little plastic containers in the grocery produce section. Bought a herb plant instead with the intention of planting it for continual herbs at home. The plant pot and wrapper were plastic. :(

I often reuse Saran Wrap for more than one time. Will cover leftovers with perused wrap

Visited a dog food store and successfully walked out with new dog food information and zero new toys. The hide a treat toys are so popular now, so I'm just using his current toys in new ways - hiding treats in them then wrapping them up in his blanket and under his bed. Takes him a while to figure things out.

Instead of power walking throuh the neighborhood, I slowed down, let the dog sniffed and started noticing and picking up so much litter.
