    I dehydrated sweet potatoes to use as dog treats so I don’t have to buy packaged ones.

    If recycling counts as decluttering, I do that every day.

    I got my flu shot this morning! I'm not sure how that's eco-conscious, but it seems like health should be one of the things.

    I donated a bunch of things today - I think that counts as excellent decluttering.

    I installed a toilet water reducer thing that I've had in my garage forever. I hope it makes a difference!

    I bought a vacuum sealer so that I could package food so it keeps longer. I dehydrated a lot of fruit this summer and have vacuum packaged it so I should be good for most of the winter!
