World Environment Day is Monday, June 5. Pledge to make a sustainable choice in your life, and watch as our collective actions help our 🌍.

Choose an area to bring a sustainable practice or product into your life. It doesn’t have to cost a dime either. If you’re needing some tips, consider one of these to get you started!

1️⃣ Collect rainwater for your plants. Whether you’re in a home or an apartment, place a container outside to help.

2️⃣ By using less energy, you reduce carbon emissions and live more sustainably. Consider using your A/C or heat less, or turning off the lights at night while relaxing.

3️⃣ Give up the paper towels (considering 254 million tons end up in the landfill each year) and use a washable/reusable rag instead.

4️⃣ Pick 1 room in the house to introduce a sustainable product. Example: In the kitchen, consider non-plastic garbage bags (like plant-based or compostable). If you need some options, type “trash bags” in on our app’s search 🔍 functionality!

5️⃣ Skip the receipt at the stores! (In addition to helping our environment, you’re reducing your exposure to chemicals. Many store receipts contain BPA.)

Every action helps!
