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?

Being aware of all the plastic when shopping or eating out is the first step, so good job Jeana!  I reuse my winco plastic bags over and over again for bulk granola, pasta, etc..I have some zip lock baggies that are 20 years old!

Your Question: “How can I eat salads and cereal without plastic?”
salads: grow your own or get them plastic free from the farmer’s market
cereal: get it in bulk at winco, or whole foods store, and use cloth produce/bulk food bags, make your own (I make mine out of unbleached muslin) or buy them on etsy :)
Hope that helps! I’m only a month or so in to being plastic free, every day is a new challenge!
Starr
