I’m 18 and just started the course Environmental and Climate Sustainability in DCU. I enjoy reading, art, GAA, and going to the gym.
My challenge
To not use any disposable coffee cups or plastic bottles.

So far I’m getting more and more used to this new habit of using less plastic and it feels as though this is a habit I want to continue after the 30 days. 

Since my last post I have been finding ways to make the challenge easier for myself. When I am on the go and in need of more water I need to find a place to fill up my reusable bottle instead of buying prepackaged water. To help with this, I discovered the website refill.ie which gives me locations of refilling stations around Ireland. 

I have also began to notice that I have been drinking lots more water in comparison to fizzy drinks or juices. This is due to the fact that it is much harder to find these drinks not in plastic bottles.

While I am in work it is so easy to just pick up the water bottles that are available to the staff but now I am using the water filling stations a lot more.
