I'm backkkkkk!
I honestly haven't been on here since November, so that's fun. I'm really going to try to come on here more, because it's really fun to be on here. But since this is for talking about the world around you, I'd really just like to share an opinion real quick;
Okay, so just a disclaimer, I'm not some sort of eco-maniac. I just think about this a lot.
Recently, a lot has been going on with the usage of plastic/unnecessary waste, and it's kind of been making me think; what if there was some sort of way I could help at all? So in my school, Quill (that's her cber name, but we're friends irl) and I tried to get a real set of silverware so we reduced the amount of plastic utensils we use. Sadly, that didn't really work out, but I tried to think of another community to bring this onto. Since most of the kids in my school really don't care about this kind of stuff, I figured I'd come back here to the nice writing people online, who actually care about a thing or two happening in the world. I was wondering if anyone wanted to start a new sort of trend thing, at least on here, saying ways we can minimize the amount of plastic we use in our day-to-day lives.
Anyone interested??????
I'm very interested! I never buy plastic silverware. I don't mind washing the real utensils. If we do get plastice somewhere, we wash and save them to be reused. We recycle plastic, glass, newspapers, magazines, etc.

Hi and welcome back!
My family composts, and we use mostly real silverware. ANd I try to recycle paper and other things. Though I do use a lot of plastic utensils and bags and things like that. Whoops... Maybe I should try to cut down on those things.

I get what you're saying. Alot of the times we don't even think about the amount of plastic we're wasting. Like right now, I see SOME PEOPLE are using plastic cups for their lemonade. For shame, for shame. *Shakes head in disapproval*. Anywayssss I don't know if this'd work but we should all try and think of ways to reduce the amount we use, disscuss it on here, and like try and apply it in our day to day lives. Would that work? I don't know, but we should give it a go :)
