🌲 living sustainably 🌲

in my house my family DOES try hard to live sustainably and use less plastic....... but i was thinking a lot about this today, and i thought i'd make a list of things i'm gonna do to be more sustainable and eco friendly when i eventually get my own place. idk when that'll be (far future) but i think it's good to write everything down !!

🌲 my cats will have their own ceramic bowls to eat their wet food from. i'll keep three and wash them with the dishes . right now my parents INSISSSST on using paper plates and it makes me mad

🌲 NO MORE DRYER SHEETS my dad insists on these too and they're useless and extra plastic. i might get those little wool ball things.......

🌲gonna have less electronics AND unplug them when not in use

🌲 COMPOST BIN and then i will grow some of my own vegetables as well. i'd love to grow flowers too and sell them or something

🌲 gonna live in a walkable town/city to get excersise and to drive/use my car less

🌲 plastic bags? plastic wrap? plastic straws? no!!!!! glass stuff !!!! or i'll use my plates and stack them in my fridge

🌲 if i have a LOT of nonperishable stuff i don't think i'll eat i'll give them to the food bank

🌲 any perscription medication bottles (if i have any) are going straight back to the pharmacy

🌲 gonna make my coffee in a french press or something similar instead of using a keurig/nespresso thing

🌲 even better DIY HOT CHOCOLATE not from a package...... but i love swiss miss ...... 

🌲 reuseable shopping bags for when i go to the store

🌲 ATTEMPT to find biodegradable bags for cat litter 

🌲 ice maker instead of a plastic ice tray 

🌲 bars of soap instead of pump bottles for dish/hand soap

🌲  air dry clothes instead of using the dryer (unless it's an emergency)

🌲 buy produce from farmers market if at all possible since it won't come with stickers + support small business !!

🌲 buy from thrift stores or even better GARAGE SALES (not supporting corperation) 

🌲 figure out if it's better to have a plastic christmas tree or a real one (lol)

i'll update this sometime if i think of more but i wanted to get this out somewhere and maybe give other people ideas ^^ save our planet !!!!
