Andromache Lemmel

I will use smaller plates and/or serve smaller portions when dishing out food.

I will start a compost or worm bin where I live.

I will enjoy 1 meatless or vegan meals each day of the challenge.

I will practice the "5 Rs" — refuse, reduce, reuse, repurpose, and recycle — to reduce my waste more than I can with just recycling alone.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will research and recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community, including electronics and metals.

I will take a walk for 15 minutes each day and take note of the infrastructure that makes walking more or less enjoyable, accessible, and possible.
