Rachel's actions
Food
Skip Plastic Bags
When possible, I will not use disposable bags when shopping, including produce bags.
Personal Care
Say No to "Flushable Wipes"
Wipes don't break down in sewer systems, but combine with fat to create massive clogs. I will find alternatives to using disposable wipes.
Community
Keep My Community Clean
I will pick up 4 piece(s) of litter each day.
Personal Care
Green Beauty
When it's time to buy more, I will replace my beauty products with refillable, sustainable, and/or DIY options.
Food
Choose Reusable Food Storage
I will only use reusable containers instead of single-use plastic storage items (such as plastic wrap, single-use sandwich bags).
Pets
Homemade Pet Treats
I will prepare my own pet treats to avoid plastic packaging.

Rachel Haywood 7/17/2022 6:36 PMToday was the third grocery trip of the month for me and I’m so happy to still remember my reusable bags! Not only do I save 10+ plastic bags from the landfill in each trip, but they make unloading food from my car to the house 100x easier! -
Rachel Haywood 7/05/2022 3:22 PMI didn’t realize how big of an impact this green challenge would make for me! It’s easier than I thought to use reusable utensils and containers, bring my own bags to the grocery, and pick up litter when I’m at work.
