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

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 not accept any disposable bags when making purchases, including produce bags.

I will spend 5 minutes learning how to compost pet waste at home or research pet waste composting services available in my area.

I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

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

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

I will purchase food items with the least amount of packaging.
