I will make my own cleaning products at home.

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

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

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

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

I will replace my soaps, shampoos, and conditions with either a bar or refillable option.

I will purchase food items with the least amount of packaging.

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 conduct a waste audit - including recyclables and compost - to understand how much waste I create and where I can reduce the most.

I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

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