In the studio and workshop I will clean and reuse mixing cups, materials containers, stir sticks, and brushes instead of grabbing new ones each time.

I will swap out my single use plastic bags for a pooper-scooper.

If traveling, I will bring my own airplane snacks and eat at local restaurants to avoid take-out containers.

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 purchase food items with the least amount of packaging.

I will pick up 10 piece(s) of litter each day.

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.

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

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

I will use my own containers when ordering takeout.

I will purchase toothpaste in an aluminum tube or in a glass jar or make my own!

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

I will watch a documentary film about waste with family and friends and talk about what we learned.
