How does working with others to clean up your community make you feel?
bridget farrow rodriquez 7/08/2022 12:39 PM
It makes me feel good. I am satisfied with the effort that my family, my neighbors and I put towards the "Pick Up Party." We even left bags in spots throughout the community that we will go back and try to collect. We also had fun and ate healthy snacks while doing the pick up.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Community

What did you learn about bioplastic production and disposal? Did anything surprise you? Are bioplastics accepted by your city's waste management?
bridget farrow rodriquez 7/03/2022 5:44 PM
Bio-plastics are made from renewable materials and partially some plants. They can be broken down completely into water. Bio-degradablity
of bio-plastics need high temperatures. Recyclable materials are BANNED from disposal in Wisconsin.

What are some of the cases you could make to an employer for why switching to durable dishes and utensils is actually in their best interest as well?

We would have less trash to empty out by the end of the day/week.

REFLECTION QUESTION

It is often true that we only have control over our own actions and not the collective community. How can you lead by example when it comes to switching disposables for reusable dishes in your community?
bridget farrow rodriquez 7/03/2022 5:06 PM
Buy reusable tumblers and decorate/personalize them for my family, co-workers and other people I know in the community.
