Lorin's actions
Energy
Turn it off
I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.
Waste
Use a Reusable Mug
I will avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.
Waste
Choose Two-Sided Printing
I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper each day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided.
Transportation
Drive Less
I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips.
Waste
Skip the Straw
Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 3 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

Lorin Young 10/12/2019 7:26 PMIdentifying how much one time plastic use I have is really proving to be a revelation. I would never have guessed I am purchasing and our using 14 of these on average every day. That is much higher then I would have ever guessed.
