The Sustainable Sandhills Team

Great Challenge! Thank you! Picture of a Puffin made entirely of plastic that was picked up on local beach!

Congratulations to Rita Nerby for winning the prize for being one of the highest scoring members of our ecochallenge team! Rita, Can you email me at anna@sustainablesandhills.org so we can get your prize sent to you?Thank you to all who participated in this challenge! I hope we learned some good habits to reduce waste that we can keep using all...

We are nearing the final week of the challenge! Don't forget that one of the team members with the highest points will win a prize (worth $50!) to help reduce plastic use in daily life. Keep reaching those goals! And thank you so much for helping us address the issue of waste with this challenge.

I am constantly sharing and keeping the plastics issue on my websites and social media to remind folks to refuse, reduce, reuse, recycle, and rot.

As much as I try to stem the flow of plastics into my home it isn't easy when others don't see a problem with items that help them.  

Several items are not worn out enough to replace.  Some items I am continuing to research.
