http://myplasticfreelife.com/showyourplastic/2012/04/plastic-challenge-maureen-week-1/ Take the challenge. Collect your plastic waste (both recyclable and non) for one week or more. Then photograph, tally, and post it here. What can we learn about our habits and lifestyles by examining our waste? And what changes can each of us make to leave the planet a little less trashy?
