Many people have been changing habits or using specific items in their everyday lives to try and reduce the amount of waste and trash they create. As a college student living in a dorm, you don\u2019t have all of the luxuries that you would in an apartment or house. Therefore, if you want to be sustainable, you don\u2019t have all of the options you would have otherwise.<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><font face=\"Georgia\">Important Things To Remember About Sustainability<\/font><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">When it comes to being <a href=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/2023\/10\/16\/environmental-sustainability-the-path-to-a-greener-future\/\">sustainable<\/a>, there are two things to remember:<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><font face=\"Georgia\">Use what you already have<\/font><\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">I know it can be tempting to run out and get a lot of reusable and sustainable products to replace single-use items. However, it is important to use everything that you have first. Once you finish your shampoo in a plastic bottle, then you can switch to a shampoo bar.<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><font face=\"Georgia\">There is no one right way to live sustainably<\/font><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">Whatever you can do to be sustainable helps. If you can\u2019t afford to make the change, it is not the end of the world. Massive corporations who pollute and create single-use plastics are the issue. They put the responsibility on the consumer to fix the problem they are actively contributing to.<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">Do whatever you can to use less plastic and create less waste. However, don\u2019t feel guilty if you can\u2019t.<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><font face=\"Georgia\">Ways To Be Sustainable<\/font><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">Here are some tips and tricks to live sustainably in a dorm:<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"570\" height=\"571\" data-id=\"263\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/filling-tap-water-bottle-getty-0619_sq.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-263\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/filling-tap-water-bottle-getty-0619_sq.jpg 570w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/filling-tap-water-bottle-getty-0619_sq-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/filling-tap-water-bottle-getty-0619_sq-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">https:\/\/www.marthastewart.com\/8379722\/how-to-clean-reusable-water-bottle<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><font face=\"Georgia\">Refill Stores<\/font><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">Refill stores are a great way to be sustainable! You can bring empty bottles and containers and fill them up with different products. I get my shampoo and conditioner from a refill store. There are two refill stores near Mt. Vernon, <a href=\"https:\/\/indigoriverandco.com\/\"><em>Indigo River<\/em><\/a> in Cedar Rapids and <a href=\"https:\/\/bscgoods.co\/\"><em>Basic Goods<\/em><\/a> in Iowa City.<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">Both stores offer products you can refill various containers with, products that don\u2019t use plastic, or products from sustainable brands.<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"260\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-17-at-7.18.44-PM-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-260\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-17-at-7.18.44-PM-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-17-at-7.18.44-PM-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-17-at-7.18.44-PM-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-17-at-7.18.44-PM-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/Screenshot-2023-10-17-at-7.18.44-PM.png 1062w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Toothpaste tablets [Huppy], https:\/\/indigoriverandco.com\/products\/huppy-tablet-toothpaste<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><font face=\"Georgia\">Reusable and Biodegradable Items<\/font><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><font face=\"Georgia\">WATER BOTTLES &#8211;<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">Something that many people use every day that is sustainable is reusable water bottles. You can find them just about anywhere and there are a lot of places to fill them up around campus. If you don\u2019t fully trust the quality of the water, you can get a water bottle that has a built-in filter or buy a Brita. While Brita filters do create some plastic, it is less than how much plastic single-use water bottles would make.<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><font face=\"Georgia\">DRYER BALLS &#8211; <\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">There are many ways you can reduce waste when it comes to your laundry. If you use dryer sheets, you can replace them with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maytag.com\/blog\/washers-and-dryers\/what-do-dryer-balls-do.html\">dryer balls<\/a>. They help your clothes dry faster and reduce the amount of wrinkles in your clothes.<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"555\" height=\"547\" data-id=\"261\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/dryerballs.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-261\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/dryerballs.jpeg 555w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/dryerballs-300x296.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 555px) 100vw, 555px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Wool dryer balls, https:\/\/bscgoods.co\/products\/wool-dryer-balls-4-ct?_pos=2&amp;_sid=8c613f55e&amp;_ss=r<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><font face=\"Georgia\">REUSABLE PERIOD PRODUCTS &#8211;<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">When it comes to reusable period products, there are many different options out there. If you\u2019re living with roommates and sharing a bathroom, some of them become more of a hassle. However, there are still products out there that would work.<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">Most tampons come with individual plastic applicators. If you think about how many tampons someone uses during their period, that results in a lot of trash and plastic waste. One way to avoid that waste is by investing in a <a href=\"https:\/\/everycycle.com\/products\/applicator\">reusable tampon applicator<\/a> and opting to buy applicator-less tampons. Another way is by using a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verywellhealth.com\/best-menstrual-cups-4685063\">menstrual cup<\/a>. Menstrual cups are generally safer and can hold more blood than tampons. With that being said, they can be more difficult in the beginning and can be messy at times.<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" data-id=\"262\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/Model-0-Masthead-6-U-Fold-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/Model-0-Masthead-6-U-Fold-1.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/Model-0-Masthead-6-U-Fold-1-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/Model-0-Masthead-6-U-Fold-1-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/Model-0-Masthead-6-U-Fold-1-768x768.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Diva Cup, https:\/\/divacup.com\/products\/model-1\/<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">If you don\u2019t wear tampons, the best option for dorm living is to get something that is biodegradable. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.itsaugust.co\/\">August<\/a> is a pad and tampon brand that creates biodegradable products. On their website you can build a box of your ideal products on their website and have it delivered to you.<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><font face=\"Georgia\">FOLDABLE TOTE BAGS &#8211;<\/font><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">There are many <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Reusable-Grocery-Bags-Shopping-Cute\/dp\/B0C7GLLTVB\/ref=sr_1_13?keywords=foldable+tote+bags&amp;qid=1697513703&amp;sr=8-13\">reusable and foldable tote bags<\/a> out there that are designed to be carried with you wherever you go. Some types come with a small pouch the bag can be compressed down into and tossed in any backpack or purse. Whenever you\u2019re given the option for a plastic bag at a store, you can use that instead.<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><font face=\"Georgia\">MAKEUP AND HYGIENE<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">If you use cotton pads to take your makeup off, I recommend trying reusable makeup pads. When they\u2019re dirty, you can wash them in the washing machine or sink and they\u2019re good as new. (Although they may be stained a bit.) Indigo River\u2013the previously mentioned refill store\u2013carries <a href=\"https:\/\/indigoriverandco.com\/products\/bamboo-charcoal-makeup-remover-pads\">reusable makeup pads<\/a>.<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">Constantly buying razor heads can be annoying and expensive. The best alternative is a metal safety razor. While you need to change the blade more often, the blades are usually cheaper and come in bulk.<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><font face=\"Georgia\">THRIFTING AND BUYING SECOND-HAND<\/font><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">Thrifting is a great way to reduce waste. The product you\u2019re buying has already been created\/assembled and you\u2019re giving it another life. It\u2019s a cheap and sustainable way to expand your wardrobe. If you aren\u2019t a fan of clothes shopping in person, there are online thrift stores; my favorite is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thredup.com\/\">ThredUp<\/a>.<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"585\" data-id=\"264\" src=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/woman-thrifting-1024x585.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-264\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/woman-thrifting-1024x585.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/woman-thrifting-300x172.jpg 300w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/woman-thrifting-768x439.jpg 768w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/woman-thrifting-1536x878.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/digitalwriting.cornellcollege.edu\/cornell-climate-crusaders\/wp-content\/uploads\/9\/2023\/10\/woman-thrifting.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Woman thrifting, https:\/\/heypumpkin.com\/style\/thrifting-tips-thatll-get-you-the-most-bang-for-your-buck\/<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">Another use for thrifting is to find decor or supplies for your dorm. You can find dishes and silverware for pretty cheap at just about every second-hand store. When living in a dorm, you only need a couple of pieces of silverware. Most things you will find in a second-hand store will be pretty durable.<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">As a student\u2013especially at Cornell College\u2013you constantly have to buy books for class. It\u2019s more sustainable to buy books second-hand. The bookstore offers the option to buy used books from other students. However, if you\u2019re looking for cheaper used books, I recommend <a href=\"https:\/\/www.slugbooks.com\/\">slugbooks.com<\/a>. It searches the internet for cheap places to buy your specific books (when you\u2019re using slugbooks, you should buy books in advance because they tend to take a while to arrive).<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><font face=\"Georgia\">Sustainable Habits<\/font><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">Many habits are vital to adapt if you want to live sustainably. Here are some easy ones that don\u2019t take much effort or much explaining:<\/font><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><font face=\"Georgia\">Turn the lights off when you leave the room.<\/font><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><font face=\"Georgia\">Limit your water usage.<\/font><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><font face=\"Georgia\">Eat leftovers before buying more food.<\/font><ul><li><font face=\"Georgia\">It saves space in your fridge and is cheaper.<\/font><\/li><\/ul><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><font face=\"Georgia\">Pick up trash when you see it.<\/font> <ul><li><font face=\"Georgia\">It may be gross, but picking up pieces of trash and throwing them away at the next trash can save it from causing more damage to the environment. Remember, it takes <em>years<\/em> for plastic to decompose. Your first toothbrush is probably still out there.<\/font><\/li><\/ul><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><font face=\"Georgia\">Reuse plastic bags when possible.<\/font> <ul><li><font face=\"Georgia\">Using them as trash can liners is a great way to keep your trash can clean and gives your bags a\u2013brief but\u2013second life.<\/font><\/li><\/ul><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><font face=\"Georgia\">If you can, join the environment club!<\/font><ul><li><font face=\"Georgia\">They are a great resource for anyone who wants to be more sustainable and be more involved.<\/font><\/li><\/ul><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><font face=\"Georgia\">Using these tips and more, you can live a less wasteful life. Being sustainable is not only good for the environment, but can be a cheap alternative in some cases.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With the rise of single-use plastics has come a rise in wanting to avoid using them.
