STARBUCKS

We went out to eat today at a place usually fill a small plastic cup with soy sauce. I picked it up, put it down, put the soy sauce on my sushi directly.

For work we were all given a clear plastic bag to use at a stadium you couldn't bring other bags to. My wife found a perfect reuse for it to hold items that needed a long term home.

We had a power sweeper stop working at home today. I can't check off that I fixed it yet. But I plan on doing it in the next few days.

I cleaned up some random plastic pieces from the ground today and saved two plastic bags from being used.

I really need to I figure out how to buy some bulk foods that aren't in plastic.

Very sad moment today finding a stack of plastic cups with coffee grounds on the outside. They didn't even get to live their life.

My drip system for my sustainable natural planter wall started not working, and my plants were dying off. Rather than buying a new system, I went to the local nursery and had them teach me how to repurpose other parts to actually fix the drip system and I did! Now I don’t have to rely on anybody else if any issues arise with it further.

Need to avoid 4, 6, and 7 symbols as those are more difficult to recycle. By avoiding purchasing these, manufactures will be forced to look at other plastic options that are more favorable to recycle.

I need to purchase a water filter for my faucet to avoid using single use bottles at home.

I visited a couple recycling facilities on YouTube today. They are incredible places! I learned that recycling some of the wrong things can not only contaminate other things, but also put workers in danger. There are plenty of people hand sorting throughout the process.
