Here are 5 ways you can care for your health and planetary health simultaneously!

1. Go for a walk with a bucket and grabber in a park to pick up litter and dispose of it responsibly. Better yet, sort it into trash and recyclables! ♻️
2. Walk or bike for transportation to improve your physical fitness and reduce emissions. 🚲
3. Eat more wholesome, locally grown food by starting a garden or shopping at Farmer’s Markets. Fresh, organic food is more nutrient-dense! 🥕
4. Bring your own reusable cups, utensils, and bags to reduce singe-use plastic consumption while reducing microplastic exposure. ☕️
5. Compost food waste in your yard or using a service. Composting gets you outside more, and returns food back into soil to grow more food! 🪱 🌱
