1. Say NO to disposables. Say YES to reusables!
Plastic -- we use them in groceries, as utensils for take-out meals, for coffee cups, and straws for drinks -- the list is endless! We use these disposables only once and discard them after use. Eventually, they end up in landfills, in our oceans, and unfortunately, they also end up being ingested by animals. Try to refuse plastic use and practice the Bring Your Own philosophy. Bring your own bag when shopping, bring your own bottle to refill your drink or use your own spoon and fork for take-outs.
