Some people shudder at the thought of… recycled toilet paper. But I don’t mind. So I’m going to be making the switch to recycled toilet paper even if it means going against what the family usually buys. Now, I think the better choice would be to buy toilet paper individually wrapped in paper regardless if …
Ever since I was 16 I always wanted a solar panel. I’ve always thought they were SO DAMN COOL!! And I am so EXCITED!!! Because I’m finally getting one! It’s a solar panel bank that will charge my phone and other devices. I can’t wait to use the sun’s power for my tech 🙂

I’m pretty sure this one is going to be broken once the challenge is over, but it will be nice to see what we have “to live without” by giving up online shopping. We rely on it so much these days. But the packaging and shipping methods do cause waste. It’s better to find the …
Palm is associated with deforestation, releasing CO2, and threatening 193 species of animals. This is no bueno, so I will not be purchasing products with palm oil.
