One way to start is with yourself and those around you! Make sure to bring a reusable water bottle out or next time you go to a coffee shop ask if you can bring your cup for them to fill! It's even as simple as bringing reusable bags to the grocery store! There are many different ways to help lower your plastic waste but I think sometimes the easiest and most simple solutions are the most affective!

I decided to create a social media page called @prevent_plastic_waste on Instagram where I give facts about the issue and ways you and anyone else can help lower their plastic use!
