Learn about low-waste living, let us know if you want to get involved with Net Impact Portland, and check out the awesome products Way of Being has to help you live a more sustainable life.

McDonald's is testing reusable coffee mugs in Britain.

Customers will pay a deposit for the coffee cup, and then return it to any McDonalds location or designated drop-off point after they've finished drinking.

What are your thoughts on this? Do you think something like this could work in Portland?

McDonald's will test out reusable cups in the United Kingdom next year in an effort to address the environmental toll of disposable cups and appeal to customers who are increasingly concerned with wasteful single-use packaging.

Quarantine have you reflecting on your personal sustainability goals? Take this quiz and see how your changes affect your emissions.

Let us know how you did!

Most Americans don’t have the information they need to effectively reduce their greenhouse gas emissions, according to new research. You might be one of them.

Hello all! We've been working on a few upcoming events for you but amid this pandemic, we are taking serious precautions and most likely will be postponing any March (and possibly April) events until the curve has flattened and COVID-19 is under control.

Please wash your hands, practice social distancing, and be kind to your neighbors and community members who may be at higher risk during this outbreak, as well as those who may be feeling the economic brunt of this. A great tip for supporting local business and restaurants during this time would be to purchase gift cards, even if you do not plan on using them right away!
