Nate Hale

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

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

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

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

I will replace 4 plastic bottles with glass or stainless steel alternatives.

I will spend 16 minutes learning how to compost pet waste at home or research pet waste composting services available in my area.

I will spend 78 minutes educating my family on the basics of living a reduced/no-plastic lifestyle.

I will only buy cloth, wooden or plant-based natural rubber toys. Or make our own toys from recycled items found in our home!

I will paint rooms in my home with low/no VOC or natural paints.

I will swap out 10 prepackaged snacks a day for fresh fruits or veggies.

I will purchase dry goods from the bulk section of my grocery store, and use my own containers to do so.
