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 !!
π² 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
π² 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.......
π²gonna have less electronics AND unplug them when not in use
π² 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
π² gonna live in a walkable town/city to get excersise and to drive/use my car less
π² plastic bags? plastic wrap? plastic straws? no!!!!! glass stuff !!!! or i'll use my plates and stack them in my fridge
π² if i have a LOT of nonperishable stuff i don't think i'll eat i'll give them to the food bank
π² any perscription medication bottles (if i have any) are going straight back to the pharmacy
π² gonna make my coffee in a french press or something similar instead of using a keurig/nespresso thing
π² even better DIY HOT CHOCOLATE not from a package...... but i love swiss miss ......Β
π² reuseable shopping bags for when i go to the store
π² ATTEMPT to find biodegradable bags for cat litterΒ
π² ice maker instead of a plastic ice trayΒ
π² bars of soap instead of pump bottles for dish/hand soap
π²Β air dry clothes instead of using the dryer (unless it's an emergency)
π² buy produce from farmers market if at all possible since it won't come with stickers + support small business !!
π² buy from thrift stores or even better GARAGE SALES (not supporting corperation)Β
π² 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 !!!!
