I will pick up trash and plastic discarded around my neighborhood when I do my daily walk.

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

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

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

I will lobby my workplace to have reusable dishes and silverware in order to minimize disposables.

I will advocate for alternatives to single use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, or work.

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

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

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 volunteer 2 hour(s) in my community.

I will use deodorant either from a bar or a jar or I will make my own.

I will replace 2 plastic bottles with glass or stainless steel alternatives.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 3 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

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

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

I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.
