Plastic Free July — habit shift #16
Posted July 16, 2022 at 4:42 pm by San Juan Update
Transition San Juan Island’s Waste Reduction group shares today’s habit shift inspiration from the global Plastic Free July campaign.
Bathroom Audit
Plastic bottles and containers hide in all corners of the bathroom and they are also some of the easiest to eliminate. There are many simple solutions for the bathroom that will not only reduce plastic waste and have a positive impact for the environment, but can also have a positive impact on your budget. Take a look around to see which plastic items you can replace with package-free options:
- Shampoo, face, and shaving products in bar form can be found at San Juan Island Food Co-op or Salty at Heart Island Apothecary
- Bring your empty container and refill shampoo, conditioner, and hair products at Salt & Sand Salon, the co-op, or Salty at Heart
- Switch to reusable razors and razor blades
- Switch to 100% recycled toilet paper
- Find plastic-free period products at the co-op and Salty at Heart
