Ann Richard

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

I will only buy cloth, wooden or plant-based natural rubber toys. Or make our own toys from recycled items found in our home!

I will replace my plastic toothbrush with a bamboo toothbrush.

I will pick up 5 piece(s) of litter each day.

I will use my own containers when ordering takeout.

I will sign a petition in support of a plastic-related initiative in my state/province.

I will keep 3 plastic cutlery out of the landfill per day by using my own reusable cutlery.

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

I will volunteer 6 hour(s) in my community.

I will swap out my cat's litter for sawdust, mulch, and dirt with baking soda.

When available, I will purchase clothing made with natural fibers, such as cotton, linen, or wool, rather than synthetic fibers.

I will replace my soaps, shampoos, and conditions with either a bar or refillable option.
