I will make my own cleaning products at home.

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

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.

I will replace 4 plastic bottles with glass or stainless steel alternatives.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases, including produce bags.

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

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

I will use my own containers when ordering takeout.

I will keep 8 plastic cutlery out of the landfill per day by using my own reusable cutlery.

I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.
