Donate old handheld electronics for recycling at the zoo's ticket window. Items will be sent to Eco-Cell and funds raised from recycling are donated to support wild gorillas.

Because many tea bags and most sleeves and sachets contain plastic, I will switch to using loose leaf tea.

If traveling, I will bring my own snacks and meals in my own containers to avoid the waste of take-out containers.

I will use a microfiber catcher in my laundry, or install a microfiber filter for my washing machine.

I will use wool dryer balls or another plastic-free alternative to dryer sheets to keep my clothes static-free.

Come by the Santa Fe College Teaching Zoo on Saturday, July 8, 10 am - 1 pm and chat with volunteers from Days for Girls. They will be giving out FREE reusable washable pads (for menstruation and incontinence) and beds for companion animals made by volunteers at the North Florida Sewing Center.
