I will spend 30 minutes learning how to compost pet waste at home or research pet waste composting services available in my area.

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

I will not buy anything except items required for health and safety.

I will spend 5 minutes educating my family on the basics of living a reduced/no-plastic lifestyle.

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

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

I will prepare 1 meal(s) at home each day without using any items packaged in single-use plastic.

I will use my own containers when ordering takeout.

I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will keep 1 plastic cutlery out of the landfill per day by using my own reusable cutlery.
