Pete Costello

I will purchase produce items without plastic packaging.

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

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

I will start a compost collection at home, work, or school.

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

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

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

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