Madeline Brydges 4/24/2019 10:09 AMHave you guys ever heard of: https://us.whogivesacrap.org/ ?? Yes, it's a real thing. The company sells 100% recycled toilet paper! Added bonus: They donate 50% of their profits to partner organizations and help build toilets for those in need.

REFLECTION QUESTIONBuildings and Cities Go for a Daily WalkWhat have you noticed on your daily walks? What have you enjoyed? What infrastructure changes could make your walks more enjoyable or possible?
Madeline Brydges 4/24/2019 5:57 AMSome of the sidewalks in our town could use some cleaning up, but I'm lucky to live by quite a few parks with nice sidewalks, trails, and bike paths! -

REFLECTION QUESTIONMaterials Recycle Everything I CanHow could you incorporate other "R's" -- reduce, reuse, refuse, repair, repurpose, etc. -- into your lifestyle? How does considering implementing these "R's" make you feel?
Madeline Brydges 4/22/2019 1:10 PMMy dog eats kibble, as well as a lot of canned, wet dog food, so I've gotten into a better habit of recycling all of the aluminum cans of wet food. He's a big dog and eats a lot (72 cans/month... which is 864 cans per year!!), so hopefully recycling all the cans makes a difference in the long run.
And, with all the food he eats, it's no surprise that he also makes a lot of poop. LOL. So, we recently bought vegetable-based, 100% biodegradable poop bags from: https://doggydogood.com/
