Change your Perspective - 1 day a month



After great success and feedback from "The Plastic Diet" we have decided to implement a community based day every month that aims to generate awareness around our actions and get people talking. We have decided to call it the “Todae Monthly Eco-Challenge”

The idea is to have a different challenge every month that only lasts for one day, without being too taxing or compromising, but that will still make a significant difference if everyone gets involved. It will occur on the 1st day of every month to make it easy to remember the date. We would love to get your ideas on what you think may be effective and fun. Please send your ideas to thoughts@todae.com.au



Todae Monthly Eco Challenge August

'Can the Cuppa!'

Most of us love our morning cuppa; cuppa coffee, cuppa tea, cuppa soy chai, and most of the time it gets from the coffee shop to our hands in a cuppa plastic. If you used a disposable coffee cup for every day you were at work, you would be throwing away approximately 240 cups a year!

This month, we are challenging you to ‘can the cuppa’ and bring your own mug, thermos or any other species of reusable cup. Most cafes are more than happy to do this and it is likely that you will get a much bigger mug of coffee for the same price!


We encourage you to do this exercise with friends and family and get them involved as well. This will make it easier, more fun and the more people that do it, the more impact it will have.

We also encourage you to write to us telling about your experience so we can share it with others.

Good luck,

Danin & The Todae Team
