I will swap out my cat's litter for sawdust, mulch, and dirt with baking soda.

I will spend 10 minutes learning how to compost pet waste at home or research pet waste composting services available in my area.

I will prepare my own pet food and treats to avoid plastic packaging.

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

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 use a rubber glove to remove pet hair from clothes, carpets and furniture.

I will replace my disposable razors with steel razors. Why not try using hair conditioner instead of shaving foam for that baby smooth feel?

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

I will pick up 1 piece(s) of litter each day.

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.
