    For my challenge I'll be carrying around all my trash for two weeks. I was at a training today and thought I was doing great not generating any trash until they brought out the boxed lunches! Now I have this box to carry around, along with the chip bag, plastic wrap, plastic utensils (for a sandwich??), and cookie bag. This is off to an interesting start.
