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

I will keep 10 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

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

I will replace my plastic toothbrush with a bamboo toothbrush.

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

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

I will replace 3 plastic bottles with glass or stainless steel alternatives.

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

I will not buy anything except items required for health and safety.

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.
