Reduce Waste
I realized that I create a large amount of waste everyday with the packaging in my lunch and the items in the vending machines at school. I want to make a personal pledge to myself to only use reusable containers in my lunch, and refrain from buying the food from the vending machines, so that I be environmental and save money while achieving to be green.
Even if you do buy items from the vending machine and end up with waste, you can still help the environment by making sure you put the waste into the right bins. I think bringing reusable containers for lunch is a great idea.
