While originally from England, Ava has been living on the Balearic Islands for the last five years. And, for a nature lover like her, there could hardly be a better place to be. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ava loves spending time outdoors. She also loves horses and spends as much time as possible riding and caring for them. She also helps with the Plastic Ocean\u2019s social media and blog (the Spanish branch).

I decided to go down this path because I saw what is happening to our planet and I just wanted to help in any way that I could. As I looked into things and started researching a little bit, I found that just by making tiny little changes I could help quite a lot. So, I started to do that and eventually I was changing more and more things. Now, you can hardly find plastic in our house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"822\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"3375\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.planetcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_4847-822x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.planetcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_4847-822x1024.jpg 822w, https:\/\/blog.planetcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_4847-241x300.jpg 241w, https:\/\/blog.planetcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_4847-768x957.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.planetcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_4847.jpg 1125w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 822px) 100vw, 822px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:1px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>PlanetCare: What do you do to lower your environmental impact?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ava: <\/strong> The biggest thing is that my dad installed a filter, a separate tap.

Now we have a filter and we can drink tap water and all the plastic bottles are gone.

Because with bigger pieces of plastic it\u2019s very straight-forward; like don\u2019t buy bottled water. But with micropladtic, I just didn\u2019t know how I could do something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And then I realised it\u2019s coming from our clothes in the washing machines and was adamant to try to stop it. At first, I bought a bag to wash my clothes in. But it proved unpractical for a family of 4.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, I found out about PlanetCare, which just makes it easy. It sits there and you swap the cartridge when needed but otherwise it doesn\u2019t change your laundry routine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As far as looking at the materials from which my clothes are made of, that\u2019s something I am working on. I do like shopping and I have to say it is easy to forget that you are essentially buying plastic clothes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But since I got aware this is the case, I am paying more attention to which materials my clothes are made of and am trying to stay away from synthetic fabrics. I am now also avoiding fast fashion retailers and support local shops instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also know that microplastics is being added to cosmetics but I am still learning more about this and am trying to get information about the cosmetics I do use. That\u2019s my next step on the microplastics journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:1px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"3380\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.planetcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_4850-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3380\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.planetcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_4850-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/blog.planetcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_4850-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/blog.planetcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_4850-768x961.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.planetcare.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/IMG_4850.jpg 1125w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 819px) 100vw, 819px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>PlanetCare: Besides using a microfiber filter, what else is in your sustainable laundry routine?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ava:<\/strong> When I first found out about the laundry issues, my first thought was \u2018Where does all the detergent go?\u2019 That then got me thinking about how we get our detergent \u2013 in massive plastic bottles. I then asked my parents to get washing strips instead. They did and the strips seem to work really well, so that\u2019s really great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We then also found a bio detergent that does come in a plastic bottle but we can refill it in a store over and over again, so that\u2019s cool. As a rule, all the detergents we use are natural.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also don\u2019t use the tumble dryer because it really just doesn\u2019t make any sense whatsoever to do so here.
