1. Say goodbye to bottled water
Think you’re doing good because your plastic bottle is recyclable? Just think about the trek your bottle had to go through to get to you. It was likely bottled in one place, and then shipped elsewhere for consumption. You’re better off investing in a bottle and filling it up as you please.

(Allgood Fun Fact: Allgood packaging is made with PCW and biodegradable materials, requiring 30-50% less fuel than other packaging)
5. Eat less red meat
The largest byproduct from the factory farming industry is methane—the greenhouse gas 72 times more potent than carbon dioxide—is one of the biggest culprits for destroying the Earth’s atmosphere.
