πΏ “R Words of Zero Waste: A Path to Sustainability” Series πΏ
Let’s talk about an important but perhaps less familiar “R” on our journey to sustainability β RESTORE! π The extraction of resources impacts our planet’s delicate balance, but restoration is our chance to heal.
πΊ Community Blooms: Explore ways to restore harmony in your community, with a native plant garden and bee-friendly flowers. Every effort, big or small, contributes to a healthier ecosystem. ππΌ
π Respecting Boundaries: Whether our impact is direct or indirect, we must respect the planet’s boundaries. Restore what we’ve unintentionally harmed in the past and avoid creating new sites that will demand restoration in the future.
Many of our townβs host neighborhood clean-up events which are great ways to get hands on in your own community. Check your cityβs calendar for the next spring event.
