Living Plastic Free

I wanted to share one of the positive changes me and my husband have made in the recent years ditching plastic; using reusable water bottles. One bottle for each is enough and the image is also featuring our cat. While it looks like a small act, it's a huge impact when you completely erase your use of plastic bottles. I personally have urged loved ones around alike family friends and even classmates of better alternatives even towards their health. School has always given me a deeper look into the horrible impacts humanity has caused all around, our air, and water contamination but for now: simply consider our waste. Plastic has been a huge issue for a while now and sadly it's impossible to avoid it; studies have been shown to find it inside our own bodies at this point. Recycling is a big lesson we are always taught but far too often people don't consider simply avoiding before hand, especially plastic bottles. Water will always be a need and far too often people don't notice water fountains are commonly provided, for example at work or the gym. It's important to have awareness surrounding how we contribute in waste everyday alike over consumption, please consider the reuse of glass, cardboard boxes, paper bags too and much more! When we turn towards different alternatives we create an impact to to reduce the demand of these harmful products. Water bottles don't just become a clutter; they also contribute in again harming our health by adding damaging chemicals to the water itself. The spread of awareness from others to myself and back out to those around me has definitely created a huge change in just my community, this is why sharing is important. The more people involved with avoiding plastic use all together, the better our chances are to cleaning up after our own messes.
