I will purchase my pet's water/food dishes, collars or leashes from the thrift store.

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 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 swap out my single use plastic bags for a pooper-scooper.

I will make my environmental actions visible by posting to my social media networks.

I will purchase toothpaste in an aluminum tube or in a glass jar or make my own!

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

When available, I will purchase clothing made with natural fibers, such as cotton, linen, or wool, rather than synthetic fibers.

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

I will use my own containers when ordering takeout.

I will pick up 5 piece(s) of litter each day.

I will try new recipe(s) or food preparation method(s) each day, such as canning, pickling, making yogurt, or baking granola bars or bread.

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

Purchase a Cora Ball (trademarked) for my washer and regularly use it to collect microfibers from my laundry.
