MY FIVE NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTION­S

-

1. Say no to single-use plastic. This means always using a reusable shopping bag, refusing plastic straws and purchasing alternativ­e products like paper-stemmed earbuds.

2. Move towards a zero waste lifestyle.

This means recycling all my waste that I can. Making eco bricks (with the waste that can’t be recycled) to build classrooms. Starting a worm farm and choosing products that are made from recycled materials.

3. Reducing food waste.

4. Eating more plant-based food.

5. Participat­ing regularly in local beach clean-ups.
