Hello everyone, hope you all are having an amazing April!! In this blog post I thought I would spread some information with all of you about how we can help the plant and our environment by these little tasks. Each little thing that you do will help the planet in any possible way. I encourage you all to try and make little changes in your everyday life to help our planet.

Use a reusable bottle

• Instead of buying plastic water bottles, choose to buy a reusable bottle that you use over and over again.

Purchase wisely

Recycle

Avoid single use products

• Try not to use one time use plastic utensils, coffee cups, and straws. Such a huge waste! Sure, it is convenient, but awful for the environment.

• Switch to reusable and durable products. Like silverware, cups, and cloth rags.

Rely on reusable containers

• Switch to glass containers or silicone containers. Use these for leftover food, storage, and organizing.
