I will spend 10 minutes educating my family on the basics of living a reduced/no-plastic lifestyle.

I will host or participate in a beach, highway, river, or other cleanup effort in my community.

I will pick up 10 piece(s) of litter each day.

I will replace 5 plastic bottles with glass or stainless steel alternatives.

I will conduct a waste audit - including recyclables and compost - to understand how much waste I create and where I can reduce the most.

I will make my environmental actions visible by posting to my social media networks.

I will either line my trash cans with repurposed newspaper or paper bags, or I will not line my trash cans at all.

I will watch a documentary film about waste with family and friends and talk about what we learned.

I will purchase toothpaste in an aluminum tube or in a glass jar or make my own!

I will avoid buying toxic plastics, including polycarbonate, polystyrene and polyvinyl.

I will replace my disposable razors with steel razors. Why not try using hair conditioner instead of shaving foam for that baby smooth feel?

I will purchase meats and cheeses from the deli counter or a butcher shop, and use my own containers to do so.
