I will spend 20 minutes learning how to compost pet waste at home or research pet waste composting services available in my area.

I will swap out 3 prepackaged snacks a day for fresh fruits or veggies.

I will provide daily plastic free alternatives (straws, water bottles, cuttlery, bar soap, bamboo toothbrushes, etc.) for my family to use.

I will spend 15 minutes educating my family on the basics of living a reduced/no-plastic lifestyle.

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

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 keep 2 plastic cutlery out of the landfill per day by using my own reusable cutlery.

I will make 1 phone call(s) per day to a public official or company to advocate for planet-friendly policies.

I will replace my plastic toothbrush with a bamboo toothbrush.

I will write 1 letter(s) or email(s) per day to a public official or company to advocate for planet-friendly policies.

I will host or participate in a beach, highway, river, or other cleanup effort in my community.

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

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