I’m a 1st year student, studying climate and environmental sustainability in DCU.
My challenge
To avoid using single use plastics and non recyclable products.

The further I get into this challenge, I’ve realised how difficult it can be to completely eliminate single use plastics from your life.

I’m not only trying to avoid plastic with regards to food and the packages they come in but also with the products I’m buying.

In Order to avoid plastic I’ve bought a shampoo bar that came wrapped paper packaging over one that comes in a plastic bottle. I’ve done the same with soap and bought a bar instead of a bottle.

I look forward to continuing making small changes like these and encouraging others to do the same.
