REFLECTION QUESTIONPersonal CareWhat are the benefits of switching to bamboo toothbrushes? How would you implore others in your community to make this switch as well?
Kiana Dullanty ☁️ 7/16/2022 10:27 PMI feel they’re more effective, it will be a lot better for the environment when ready to dispose of or if it breaks or anything like that, and if I wanted to try and help the community to switch I’ll definitely show my friends and use social media -
REFLECTION QUESTIONPersonal CareWhat have you noticed about the economic and social impact of switching to steel razors? Was there ever really a need for disposable razors, or do you think it was just a way to sell more things?
Kiana Dullanty ☁️ 7/16/2022 10:25 PMI definitely feel disposable razors were just a way for people to “need” to buy razors again and again, I feel steel razors are more effective and will last a lot lot longer, and they are nicer for sure -

REFLECTION QUESTIONCommunityWhat did you learn about how plastic production impacts humans, animals, communities, and the environment? Which of these impacts specifically affects your community?
Kiana Dullanty ☁️ 7/16/2022 10:14 PMThere are toxins that affect the environment, and like as an example like soda plastic holder things the little rings, fish and turtles and stuff die because of that because it gets thrown in the ocean, there’s just extra waste everywhere and it’s so bad. I feel like all of it affects the community -
