I will calculate my water footprint and look for a few ways I can reduce consumption or waste.

I will calculate the carbon emissions associated with my household and consider how lifestyle changes could reduce the carbon footprint and impacts on the environment.

I will purchase produce items without plastic packaging.

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

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

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

I will purchase dry goods from the bulk section of my grocery store, and use my own containers to do so.

I will raise money to support a nonprofit dedicated to plastic pollution reduction.

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

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

I will use a menstrual cup and/or cloth pads
