Sue Chantorn

Within my community at home or work, I will organize or attend a local cleanup event.

I will try a new vegan or vegetarian recipe and share how it turns out on the Ecochallenge feed, or with family and friends.

When you get a sample in a biohazard bag, don't throw out the bag! As long as it is not visibly soiled it can be put into one of the canvas bags that are hanging around the lab. Worried that there is water in the bag because the sample was on ice? Don't! Just dump out the ice and shake it out, then stuff it in the canvas bags.

Rather than disassembling that box you received something in, check if it can be used by RLS or Sendouts. If not, don't throw away the Styrofoam insert; instead put it into one of the labeled bins on FB.2 or FB.4!

during April, as you walk around your neighborhood, out shopping, or on your commute, keep an eye out for loose plastic caps on the sidewalk. Pick these up and drop them in our collection bin in the lab.
