Alright I bought something.

It was in cardboard though! It's a present so I can't say what it is. As for trash, I have a plastic wrap. It was something I won in a contest from AEONS ago. It would wait until I'm all clean bin and stuff :/ hahaha. Carson signing off! I love you all!

So far so good!

No material items purchased, no garbage created. I started to get my compost ready and started sorting through some recyclables though. I think I'm to start a garden this year :)

I'm Back!

Hey guys! Carson signing back in! Haha time sure has passed, I can't believe its been over a year already. Things have changed a lot since we started this. It's just me this time though. I honestly didn't even tell anybody else I'm starting again.

Truth is, I'm not here because I missed it so much or anything. I have an action plan, and this actually falls in line with it. It's not going to be a competition this time. It's just me. I don't expect to have zero waste this year. I'm not an old teenager so much as a young adult now. I'm going to need supplies for work and school. But that's the point of blogging right? To get ideas and advice from like-minded people. I at least have a head-start this time haha; a little planning is going a long way.

Anyways, I'm back! I'm not sure if anybody will ever read this, but I'll try to blog at least once a week!

Sorry

We maybe kinda gave up. We made it like, a month though. Maybe next year?

Day 35 - Watching Clean Bin w/ Sophie, Andrew and Kailey.

Kailey & Andrew & Sophie

Sophie's Opinion On The Challenge : I think it is a very admirable thing to do. I personally think for me it is impossible, but I definitely think I'm going to put some aspects of the challenge into my everyday life. I also read blog and I support fully what they are doing.
 Sophie's One More Thing :  I am going to see what else I can recycle and I am going to ask for less packaging. I am also going to look at buying more organic and local food. :)

Happy Halloween!!

Minus all the plastic wrappers :/

7 Days To Create A Habit? I think that is the saying- Kailey

Its been 27 days. At my house only our recycling bin was put out for collection. Anything and everything that can be recycled, does. Not only have we been recycling like crazy, but we have took on reusing to a new level. As an example; my dad is the master of homemade raspberry jam and he reuses empty/cleaned containers (e.g. yogurt) to store it in instead of buying new ones. He has always done this. Another example; I recently discovered a hair curling method online, using a sock! It does take some practice, but it works. There is no heat involved either (less damaging on the hair), with no need to plug in a curling iron. Once a unwearable sock with holes in the toe, now a valued hair accessory.
