Celebrate America’s Freedom by Declaring Independence from Plastic

Let freedom ring! While you’re celebrating the birth of American independence and the values of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness this holiday week, consider declaring your own personal independence from single-use plastic by going plastic free during your 4th of July celebrations and all month long.

We’re pleased to be supporting the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium’s Plastic Free EcoChallenge this July. And, you can participate too. Click here to join the challenge.

Celebrate the 4th of July and help protect our environment by taking a few simple actions:

  • Meal Prepping? Take reusable produce and grocery bags to the store when you’re shopping.
  • Attending a get-together? Take your favorite dip, side dish or drink to share in a glass container.
  • Dining out? Take a reusable take-out container for leftovers.
