I learned that most of the cleaning products I use are very toxic and can threaten the marine life. They have chemicals that can cause water and air pollution. I will try to create my own cleaning products.

For the past couple of years, I have been involved with a company sponsored clean up event in collaboration with the Hudson Riverkeeper - the Riverkeeper Sweep. Our next sweep is this Saturday. Working with others to clean up the community feels very rewarding, but it also eye-opening. It is always surprising to see how much litter lines our...

I learned that some of the products I use are advertised as clean or vegan. I also learned that Sephora and Ulta offer, or will offer, a means of recycling empty cosmetic containers.

I attended the Earth Month Ecochallenge: Conservation & Action on earth day. It was interesting to learn the different ways other people are doing to protect Earth.
