Going Green

Going Green At home  by Lauren Abate

I had my family and I use a reusable shopping bag instead of the plastic bags at the store. I thought it would help reduce our plastic use to reduce pollution and plastic waste. I advocated by putting a small message with pictures on my fridge, door and on my parents car....this would remind them right before they went shopping.

This was challenging for my family at first to get into this habit of shopping with the bag, but eventually it became easier to remember and my parents found it a lot easier to just use the one bag. We will continue this in the future because it's a easy way to reduce our plastic waste and it is an easy habit to obtain.
