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

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.

If traveling, I will bring my own airplane snacks and eat at local restaurants to avoid take-out containers.

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 purchase beauty products that are packaged in sustainable packaging.

I will purchase refillable beauty products.

I will replace my pet's shampoo with an eco-friendly shampoo bar.

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

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

I will avoid sending 5 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day by using a reusable mug or bringing my own collapsible cup.

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

I will give my pets natural alternatives to toys like femur bones and antlers, canvas, natural rubber, hemp, rope or cotton toys. Or I will make our own toys from recycled items found in our home!

I will paint rooms in my home with low/no VOC or natural paints.

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