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

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

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 purchase food items with the least amount of packaging.

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

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

I will only pack reusable cutlery, drinkware and tupperware-like containers in my children's lunches to reduce plastic waste.
