  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    At Work Use Reusables at Work
    While one's plastic cutlery is a seemingly very small part of someone's "plastic impact", why do you think it's important for us to address this opportunity to reduce?

    It is so important to reduce the plastic impact in our oceans and landfills in any way we can. I love that Morrison Healthcare offers reusable silverware for people who don't need to take their lunches "to go".

    It always makes me feel great when I am able to do a random act of kindness. I love seeing the smile on a person's face when someone treats them with kindness.
