Last year I started a Facebook page for people to support each other in reducing and eliminating single use plastic in their lives. This evolved into a more general environmental approach, addressing many areas of working toward sustainability. We share information, articles, ideas, frustrations, etc. There are presently 509 members. I am the admin.

I will reduce the amount of water flushed and save up to 11 gallons (41 L) of water each day by installing a toilet tank bank.

I am spending one hour a day (several months now) on most days, reading articles; watching films, lectures, podcasts, webinars; reading fiction and non-fiction, current and historical accounts about the history of colonialism and racism in our country. Mainly addressing Black issues now, but also Indigenous, immigrant, Asian, and other histories of oppression.
