I will use reusable dishes and silverware when eating at work.

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

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

If traveling, I will reuse my old travel tubes to refill with my soaps or only bring bar soaps with me in a TSA approved reusable quart sized bag.

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

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

If traveling, I will bring my own plastic free items (water bottle, grocery bags, collapsible food containers, utensils, straws, etc.) with me.

I will make my own cleaning products at home.

I will create or support a sharing economy with family, friends, and neighbors.

I will provide daily plastic free alternatives (straws, water bottles, cuttlery, bar soap, bamboo toothbrushes, etc.) for my family to use.

I will swap out 4 prepackaged snacks a day for fresh fruits or veggies.

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

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