Erin Hitsman

I will only use reusable containers instead of single-use plastic storage items (such as plastic wrap, single-use sandwich bags).

I will use deodorant either from a bar or a jar or I will make my own.

I will purchase my pet's water/food dishes, collars or leashes from the thrift store.

I will try new recipe(s) or food preparation method(s) each day, such as canning, pickling, making yogurt, or baking granola bars or bread.

I will keep 1 plastic cutlery out of the landfill per day by using my own reusable cutlery.

I will prepare 1 meal(s) at home each day without using any items packaged in single-use plastic.

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

I will advocate for alternatives to single use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, or work.

I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will plant an herb or vegetable garden in my home, workplace, or community garden
