New year is around the corner! Are you tired of living a wasteful lifestyle and hurting the environment? Do you want to live a more eco-friendly lifestyle? Do you feel a little overwhelmed about all of the big changes you will have to make in your life? Starting something new can be stressful when you are unsure where to begin. Rest assured, you have already completed the most difficult step – deciding to make a change. You can start by focusing on smaller changes that are easily made before you tackle the more difficult steps of your eco-friendly resolution.
Atomic Hands challenge you to #opttoact with 52 weekly small and simple actions from REI to reduce your impact, get active and leave the world better than you found it. On their own, none of these 52 actions are going to save the world. But each week offers a chance to incorporate more eco-friendly behavior into your everyday life. And if we all start being better, together, we can do a lot of good. Keep an eye out for our weekly #opttoact videos and join us in making the world a better place!
Week 1: Make cleaning up a part of your day-to-day life this week. While you’re out, pick up and properly dispose or recycle litter you come across. And don’t forget to recycle whenever possible. For example: Yesterday I got out of my car in the parking lot of Best Buy and saw a black comb lying on the pavement. I picked it up and tossed it in the trash before entering Best Buy. Simple actions go a long way!
