I did not throw the water away that washed the rice. I saved it in a couple of containers so that I can use it when I wash the dishes or make a soup.

I brought dozens of old newspapers and magazines to the paper recycling bin.

After lunch at a restaurant, I packed the leftovers in my reusable container that I carry in my bag. This is not a common behavior in Korea, but I feel good about doing it because it reduces food waste and saves resources as well as my time and energy to prepare another meal.

I did not use body soap and shampoo when I showered. I found I was clean enough after that.

I made a detour riding to work, to put the vegetables and fruits peels I've collected in the composting bin from my city.

I used metal straw with my drink and not plastic.

Instead of buying new skin care products, I used leftover liquid from facial mask packs I received as gifts.

I picked up some plastics on my walk and recycled it.

I saved old plant pots to use them as pencil holders.

I started to use grocery bag instead of trash bag.
