Cathleen's actions

Oceans

Say No to Plastic Straws

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When marine wildlife ingest plastic, they have a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

    I enjoy not having so many plastic water bottles to bring to recycling.  Simply washing out my reusable sports bottle is working this week.

    Enjoyed a private hike up Fire Tower, Oakhill area of Concord, NH today.  Mindful of the beauty of our coming spring while balancing the Covid- 19.
