    Today I paid $6 and opted out of Junk Mail by visiting dmachoice.org to register for the service and reduce unwanted mail from companies you don't have a relationship with.
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste
    What 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?

    Once in Connecticut, USA, I found that Walmart did not have bags due to a restriction from local government. I just had to carry the items by hand. Many other with more, used the shopping carts to carry to their cars.

    Been researching more on microplastics and health risks. Heart health seems to be one that is prevalent. Using Aria AI, found a statistic of up to 4.5 times risk of heart disease with more microplastics in arteries. https://health.harvard.edu/heart-health/microplastics-in-arteries-linked-to-heart-disease-risk

    A more challenging event, but only as looking around on all the different actions that are available. My focus is still plastic and alternative energy.
