  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Use Reusable Utensils
    How can you be an advocate for using reusables instead of disposables for the rest of your community? Where are they currently dependent on disposable food packaging or eating utensils, and how can you convince them of the need for change?

    Making reusable resources easy to obtain and easy to use is a great place to start! A lot of people use disposable options for the convenience, but when you make reuseable just as fast and convenient then it's a no brainer.
