Note: This is a list I define as "work in progress". It doesn& #39;t mean I& #39;m doing it perfectly, it means I& #39;m trying my best.
This planet is our planet. We must change. #ClimateChange

DIET
I& #39;m now fully #vegetarian. I was pescatarian for years, since 2014. This year I cut fish from my diet as well. Trying to reduce eggs & making sure I buy the free range ones.
Next step: Buying organic fruit&vegetables. Found this Irish website: https://greenearthorganics.ie"> https://greenearthorganics.ie

PLASTIC WASTE
No more:
- Disposable cups, KeepCup instead
- Plastic bottles, using a Chilly& #39;s bottle instead
- Plastic bags, I have 3 I keep re-using plus fabric bags
- Shampoo & shower gel bottles, I use soap bars instead
- No more plastic toothbrushes, bamboo ones instead

CLOTHING
No more compulsive buying. I& #39;ve always loved style, so for years I was addicted to fast-fashion & to how quick I could get something nice looking & cheap. I& #39;ve stopped. My wardrobe& #39;s full already. I only buy on occasions, vintage clothing too & no more Zara & Co.

ELECTRONIC DEVICES
I& #39;m making sure I use what I have already. Not dying for new accessories, I make sure not to change my phone until it dies out. No more tiny little electronic accessories wrapped in plastic that seem cool for a second, but are useless after a while.

GENERAL WASTE
I make sure to divide my waste accordingly.
ELECTRICITY & GAS
I use washing machine/drier only at weekends.
Always turn off lights when not in a room.
Trying to be mindful about the heating system, 2 daily time frames, maximum 20°C

TO IMPROVE
I have no car, so often I get my groceries delivered. They sadly still come with LOADS of plastic wrapping almost every single item. As stated before, going to start ordering vegetables & fruit from https://greenearthorganics.ie"> https://greenearthorganics.ie where products come plastic free.

What are your steps for sustainability? Is there anything you want to share to help me/us improve?
