not eat meat on Mondays.

today we will not eat meat. WHY Raising factory farm cattle is one of the top contributors to global warming*. Let's join the positive impact of  #meatlessmonday and help slow global warming. *With the exception of holistic management. HOW Order or cook meals without meat. Peanut butter bagel or oatmeal for breakfast. Falafel or hearty seed salad for lunch. Quinoa bowl for dinner. More inspiration here. From two subscribers on this tip: Joy C. "Also add one part white vinegar to three parts water when washing [produce]. This will remove mold spores and keep your produce fresher longer so there is less fFood waste. A quick rinse after washing will get rid of any vinegar taste." Sarah S. "I wanted to share that in addition to washing my veggies like this, I will also add salt to the water to remove any pesticides for when I can't find organic (or my budget doesn't allow it). I've read that it's more effective than rinsing under the tap when it comes to nonorganic produce."

not idle our cars. 🚙

today we will not idle our cars. WHY 3.8 millions gallons of gas are wasted on idling in the US...every day. That's 34,000 tons of CO2*. We will reduce air pollution & our demand for gas by not idling. *The same CO2 is emitted by burning 36 million pounds of coal. HOW Turn off our cars when parked for more than 10 seconds. Keep on our coats to stay warm. Note: newer cars don't need as much time to warm up before driving. todaywewillnewsletter.com | #todaywewill Today We Will 377 W11th St NY, NY 10014 Add us to your address book Want to change how you receive these emails?

opt for a sandwich at lunch.

today we will opt for a sandwich at lunch. WHY No plastic bowls or forks here. From packaging to how they're eaten, sandwiches require less waste. We will reduce our waste by choosing a sandwich. HOW When we go out for lunch today, we order a sandwich. If we are making our lunch, use reusable containers or make a sandwich.

use coffee bags instead of plastic bags for bulk buys.

today we will use coffee bags instead of plastic bags for bulk buys. WHY Bags we put ground coffee beans in are usually made from paper. We will reduce plastic waste by using them instead of plastic bags for bulk. HOW When we forget our reusable bags for buying bulk, use a coffee bag, usually found near the coffee section of the food store, instead of a plastic produce bag.  Example of tip in real life.   todaywewillnewsletter.com Today We Will 377 W11th St NY, NY 10014 Add us to your address book Want to change how you receive these emails?
