I will make my own cleaning products at home.

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

I will keep 5 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will use my own containers when ordering takeout.

I will replace my plastic toothbrush with a bamboo toothbrush.

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

I will prepare 2 meal(s) at home each day without using any items packaged in single-use plastic.

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

I will try new recipe(s) or food preparation method(s) each day, such as canning, pickling, making yogurt, or baking granola bars or bread.

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

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

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 lessen my plastic impact by making my own makeup.

I will purchase refillable beauty products.

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