Eco-Chic Lifestyle Change Week 1 My SMART Goal

All of us have opportunities to make a change in our day to day lives that can help make a difference our world. If just one person makes a change then thats one more step in a positive direction rather than one step back. Just think, if you can get your friends, classmates and school to make even a small change towards a new Eco-lifestyle how much that can effect your community, town and even state! I contribute to making a change in my Eco-Lifestyle by focusing on recycling. I want to make this a way of life because recycling cannot only effect me here, but can reach out and have a positive effect on our world globally. My SMART Goal is to reclaim all recyclable items that I use in my day to day life. If we can keep recycling we won't be forced to tap into all resources that we are blessed with that could potentially become damaged or even extinct after prolong abuse. Also when I am buying items I look for products that are either recyclable or reusable and eventually I want to only be using recyclable products. I am making my first move towards my SMART goal by informing my roommates of my plan and setting up a separate bin for items to be recycled. I also went through what is considered recyclable about and what is not with them. I am excited to get underway with my plan because I truly want to make a change for the better of our Mother Earth!
