Please spend two minutes with Julia Butterfly Hill, Author and Activist, watching this video.

It is important that we change our thoughts about convenience and become a model global citizen instead.

Consider using reusable bottles, bags and containers. Avoid creating unnecessary trash.

DRINKING
  • If you go to Starbucks, bring your own cup. They’ll even wash it for you.
  • If you drive through for fast food, bring your own cup.
  • If you are carrying bottled water, fill your own reusable container at home.
  • If you have a party, use washable cups.
SHOPPING
  • If you go to the grocery store, bring your own reusable shopping bags. Be sure to wash frequently.
  • If you go to the mall, carry a small bag in your purse that will easily expand to hold new purchases.
  • If you are buying produce, bring mesh reusable bags.
  • If you are buying produce, bring mesh reusable bags.
  • If you are buying beauty products, choose refillable container options.
EATING
  • If you eat in restaurants, bring your own reusable to go containers.
  • If you have a dinner party, use washable plates and napkins.
HAND-WASHING
  • Since you wash your hands often, carry with you a reusable hand towel. Wash at home.

Think about what waste you are producing and make small changes until you create new global citizen habits.
