I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 2 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

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

I will paint rooms in my home with low/no VOC or natural paints.

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

I will purchase food items with the least amount of packaging.

I will start a compost collection at home, work, or school.

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 spend 15 minutes learning how to compost pet waste at home or research pet waste composting services available in my area.

If traveling, I will bring my own airplane snacks and eat at local restaurants to avoid take-out containers.

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

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

I will make my own cleaning products at home.
