🌎 One plastic bag. One coffee lid. One straw.
They seem insignificant... until they're multiplied by millions!
As 's Plastic Free July comes to a close, remember that protecting our environment doesn't end when the calendar changes.
The small choices you make every day can have a lasting impact.
💧 Carry a reusable water bottle.
🛍️ Keep a reusable shopping bag handy.
☕ Bring your favorite coffee mug.
🥡 Say "no thanks" to plastic utensils and other single-use items whenever you can.
What starts as a 31-day challenge can become a lifelong habit, helping create cleaner neighborhoods, healthier waterways, and a more sustainable DC for everyone.
💚 What's one plastic-free habit you'll keep long after July?
