Erin Schneider

I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

I will watch a documentary about food with family and friends and talk about what we learned.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.

I will recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.

I will carefully fill my plate in the dining hall and take only what I can eat. I'll also inquire about ways to improve composting and use of recyclable foodware.

I will purchase produce and meat from a local farmers market or food co-op, or join a CSA.

I will keep 1 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will not use any disposable plates, cups, or cutlery.
