    Lobbying legislators and companies would be a good way to start—maybe start small with emails and see where that goes.

    One of the things I learned from this that I will carry over is the eco paint information. I recently purchased a home and looking into redoing the paint in certain areas. This lead me to a paint recycle program (PaintCare)we can implement or partner with in my profession as well.

    I was surprised that Starbucks gave me a reusable cup. I was expecting. A disposable like always. I hadn’t planned to stop so I didn’t have my own cup with me. Now I keep this in my cars glove box for future use. Idk if this is at all Starbucks or just this location.

    Lint roller alternative! I recently adopted another dog and was going through lint roll refills like crazy. I finally found something I don’t have to buy single use sheets for. I found it at a warehouse type thrift shop.

    These are the safety razor blades we’ve been using for years and still haven’t made a dent in the box. Astra blades.
