6/12 - 1 More Month of Zero Waste | June 2021 | No More Water Bottles!! | Stop Disposables! | Easy and Free

Hi, I’m Mo.
Here we are in June and it's time for 1 More Month of Zero Waste. This month, let's give up disposable water bottles! Let's get one step closer to going Plastic Free! For 1 More Month of Zero Waste, we participate in easy and free zero waste challenges to change our lives for the better and create less waste!
This month we are giving up disposable water bottles. Learn to bring water with you where you go, use water filters, and be mindful and prepared in your daily life! Bring your reusable water bottle, a jar that you washed, or a cup from your house! By cutting out this expensive disposable we can better our environment and our lives. This is a small step to take but makes a big difference to the world! If you have disposable plastic bottles, please consider donating them to communities in need that might not have clean drinking water. There are disaster areas that need this kind of assistance, but also there are many close to home communities that may not have access to drinking water. With only a little research we can find people in need of plastic water bottles.

6/13 - 1900 -1950 Readathon Reading Vlog | 5 Books! | Monthly Vlog | Modern Classic | Spring in Asbury Park!

Hi, I’m Mo.
In May I participated in the 1900-1950 Readathon created by Books and Thing (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCu0QEvzt0k&t=200s). I read 5 books, some modern classics, some nonfiction, and showed you what Spring in Asbury Park!
I was sooo happy to do this readathon and loved pretty much all the books I read! I read 3 nonfiction, a dystopian, a memoir, a philosophy book, a book of poems, a literary fiction, and they were all so good. I read one book for every decade from 1900-1950. I am so glad that books and things created this challenge! I hope that she leads this readathon again next year!
Here are the prompts:
1. Read a book published 1900–1950 from the country you’re from
2. Read a book published 1900–1950 from a different country
3. Read a genre classic, published 1900–1950 (such as classic crime, classic sci-fi, classic fantasy, historical fiction, etc)
4. Read something published 1900–1950 that isn’t a novel (such as non-fiction, plays, poetry, short stories, etc) 5. Read a work of literature published 1900–1950 set during or exploring WWI or WWII
Bonus challenge: Read a book from every decade of the period (1900s, 1910s, 1920s, 1930s, 1940s)

Books in this video:
The Loved One (1948) Evelyn Waugh
Out Of Africa (1937) Karin Blixen aka Isak Dinesen
