Kat's actions
Study
Complete a Waste Audit
I will conduct a waste audit - including recyclables and compost - to understand how much waste I create and where I can reduce the most.
Study
Estimate Your Ecological Footprint
I will calculate my ecological footprint, and from the results brainstorm and take action on ways I can reduce my annual footprint.
Bedroom
Ditch Dryer Sheets
I will use wool dryer balls or another plastic-free alternative to dryer sheets to keep my clothes static-free.
Kitchen
Try a New Recipe
I will try new recipe(s) or food preparation method(s) each day, such as canning, pickling, making yogurt, or baking granola bars or bread.
Community
Keep My Community Clean
I will pick up 1 piece(s) of litter each day.
Bedroom
Eco Detergent
I will use laundry detergent that is packaged in glass or aluminum, or an alternative like soap nuts.
Kitchen
Switch to Loose Leaf Tea
Because many tea bags and most sleeves and sachets contain plastic, I will switch to using loose leaf tea.

Kat Marian 7/02/2023 5:56 AMUsing Trader Joe’s wool-balls!-
Kat Marian 7/02/2023 9:19 AMIt’s two “tennis ball” sized wool balls, just add to laundry to dried instead of dryer-sheets! Problem is I am allergic to wool, ant rose tiny fibers will send me off. I use this just for my fam…not for me -
