REFLECTION QUESTIONWaste Use a Reusable MugMaybe you've heard how good it is to switch from a single use coffee cup to a reusable one, but it's just hard to make the switch. What stands in your way of making this a habit? By identifying the challenges, you can begin to work through them to have better success in taking this action. Knowing the difference you are making, how does it make you feel?
Erick Brady 3/02/2019 9:46 AMIt's hard for me to make the switch because the cafeteria doesn't have reusable coffee cups. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONWaste Use Reusable BagsWhat do you do if you find yourself in the situation of needing a bag for items but don't have a reusable one with you or aren't allowed to use the one you brought? Carry things out in your hands? In a cart? Accept a disposable one? If you find yourself in this position often, what system could you put in place to try to create a successful habit of not using plastic bags?
Erick Brady 3/02/2019 9:45 AMI usually use my pockets or a cart if I drove. I could leave a reusable bag in my vehicle or just plan ahead if I walk. -
