Pollution Prevention Week is happening on Septembe

Pollution Prevention Week is happening on September 20-26, 2021! Here are some tips on what you can do at home to reduce sources of pollution and prevent damage to the environment! ⁠
⁠
🌎 Look for safer products for your family: third party certified green products and organizations like Green America ⁠
🌍 Be on the look out for green-washing - read labels to make sure they’re not tricking you. ⁠
🌏 Reduce your landfill footprint: reducing consumption, reusing whatever you can, and recycling like a boss all contribute to environmental protection. We have some awesome posts about it on our feed!⁠
⁠
Pollution Prevention week is a great time to sit down with your family (or roommates) - kids and all - and come up with ways that you as a household can implement green practices in your day-to-day. What are you most excited to try out?⁠

Get to know the Himalayan! @himalayan.restaurant⁠⁠
⁠⁠
It’s an awesome place to have lunch on Lake Street right between Two Bettys Refill Station and our HQ on Minnehaha! (Anna, our founder lady, sent these pictures, she loves the aesthetics of this floral explosion on the patio along with the amazing food - you want some hot peppers to build that immune system!? the Saag fixes all that ails! Or you can order the spice Mn nice as well)⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Another great place to visit is the temp structure at the Gandhi Mahal site that burned during the uprising. Now, it’s an outdoor event space! Pictured is the event from ⁠⁠
@newnativetheatre - New Native Theatre, based in the Twin Cities, who work toward a new way of looking at, thinking about, and staging Native American stories.⁠⁠

Happy first FALL day! 🍁🍂🐿⁠⁠ ⁠⁠ Fa

Happy first FALL day! 🍁🍂🐿⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Fall is a great time to plant, harvest and/or change crops and flowers that you have in your garden! ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Grow it Greener this way: ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
🍁 Start by selecting the native plants that have already grown well with the climate, rainfall, and soil in Minnesota!⁠⁠
💧 Less water! To be green, it is important to be sustainable, and using less water is one part of that. Collect water to use on your plants by installing a rain barrel! - good news! we have a post on how you can do your own (link in bio) ⁠⁠
🥗 Start composting! You can do that by using deadheaded flowers, dried leaves and create a nutrient-rich, long-lasting fertilizer. And you can also start using low waste with your food and use curbside composting! - also, we have a great blog post about it! (link in bio!) ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Starting to grow in a planet friendly way can produce less waste, use fewer chemicals, and possibly save money. At Two Bettys, we love that combination!⁠⁠
