*Crinkle*

 June 5 is World Environment Day, focusing on plastic pollution in 2025.


Reuse.
Recycle.
Reduce.

And a few sillies that highlight a cat's adoration of plastic bags:



Thankful for the people who are inventing ways to remove plastic waste from the oceans.

In honor of June is Audiobook Month:

I recommend V. E. Schwab's, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, standalone novel. 

"France, 1714: in a moment of desperation, a young woman makes a Faustian bargain to live forever and is cursed to be forgotten by everyone she meets."

Also gladly recommend Shades of Magic Series by the same author:

A Darker Shade of Magic (2015)
A Gathering of Shadows (2016)
A Conjuring of Light (2017)

📚

  1. Heck, I feel like I made the same Faustian bargain, but the immortality bit was left out...

    1. Hahaha! She isn't a shrinking violet, that Addie LaRue. Just because she is human, doesn't mean she can't play the demon's game. *wink*

  2. THose are cute funnies...and that book sounds, well kind of sad in a way.
    I only ever let our kitties have paper bags, as the plastic ones could entrap them. Once while I was unpacking my shopping one of them jumped in a bag and promptly got stuck in the handle, he careened in a panic all over the house, until I could catch and release him. And PIpo was apt to try and eat them, he was nuts about anything made with soft plastic...sheesh! Even used ziplock bags in the trash.

  4. Plastic bags are "outlawed" here in Maryland. Bring your own, or "pay" for paper. And we are slowly noticing more products being sold in paper containers, although they do tend to have higher prices, which need to come down to encourage consumers to buy them.

  5. Example: I buy milk in a paper carton! No more plastic jugs, YAY!

  6. There is just something about crinkly grocery sacks that get a cat's attention. Unfortunately here I use them for the small trash cans and someone we know likes to chew on the plastic. I don't like that.

  8. Sadly, people do not even think twice about using and abusing and discarding the plastic bags here. Big sigh.
