BOOK ME

What an AMAZING world we live in, and I've only se What an AMAZING world we live in, and I've only seen a teeny tiny fraction of it. Do you ever get chills thinking about the views you have yet to see that will take your breath away? Is it just me? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let's protect our beautiful playground. Pack out everything you bring on hikes, camping trips, and skiing. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Cut down on consumerism, I know it's hard. Shiny new things are nice, but all the packaging, shipping emissions and potential consumer waste is bad news. Last year I set an allowance of X dollars that I could spend on clothing (my kryptonite). I was actually amazed by how often I felt the urge to impulse buy something that I later lost interest in because I waited to make sure I actually wanted to fit that into my budget. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Reuse! My favourite reuse project from last year was turning old pillow cases into grocery tote bags. We now have enough bags to keep in both my husband's car and mine so we eliminate the need for plastic bags. We also are reusing all the plastic bags that became mandatory during the pandemic as trash bags. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Recycle. This is kind of the last ditch attempt at  at living green. If you can't reduce or reuse it, hopefully it can be recycled. You'll actually be amazed at how much crap you'd throw in your bin that can actually be recycled. We have a refuse station that recycles my salt and vinegar chip bags that I can't seem to kick.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I know this is alot, but  I'm super passionate about taking baby steps to a greener lifestyle. I'm not living a  perfectly green life, and that's okay. I'm trying. I think lots of people are intimidated by trying to go green because they aren't doing it perfectly and don't want to cut everything out. You don't have to, just try your best and try to go green where you can! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
