Any time I’m offered a straw or plastic bag, I can say “no thank you”. That keeps these dangers away from the animals that live within our system.

Jennifer Malone 4/20/2019 4:45 AMWhile saving bags for the Trex project at school, we realized just how much non-recyclable plastic is in around us. We’ve started using machine washable produce bags at the grocery store and just got a reusable dry cleaning bag. We don’t grab a straw when eating out. Driving along 355, we noticed how much plastic was caught in fencing...gross! -
Jennifer Malone 4/13/2019 4:35 AMThere’s been a leaky faucet at work for months. Many people have commented about it. I had a chance to speak with someone higher up and it was fixed immediately. We were super excited to see it fixed.-
