Karen Buck

I will lobby my workplace to have reusable dishes and silverware in order to minimize disposables.

I will make my environmental actions visible by posting to my social media networks.

I will visit a local dump/transfer station, material recovery facility, and/or landfill to learn about the waste stream.

I will advocate for alternatives to single use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, or work.

I will either line my trash cans with repurposed newspaper or paper bags, or I will not line my trash cans at all.

I will prepare 2 meal(s) at home each day without using any items packaged in single-use plastic.

I will write 2 letter(s) or email(s) per day to a public official or company to advocate for planet-friendly policies.

Create plastic free community events. So much garbage is generated at events, especially plastic garbage. Bring reusable plates, encourage water jugs to fill reusables or paper cups.
