Vicki Krauter

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 make my own cleaning products at home.

I will purchase beauty products that are packaged in sustainable packaging.

I will avoid buying toxic plastics, including polycarbonate, polystyrene and polyvinyl.

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

I will plant an herb or vegetable garden in my home, workplace, or community garden

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 4 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

I will keep 3 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

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

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

I will volunteer 50 hour(s) in my community.

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 airplane snacks and eat at local restaurants to avoid take-out containers.

If traveling, I will reuse my old travel tubes to refill with my soaps or only bring bar soaps with me in a TSA approved reusable quart sized bag.

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