I will spend 30 minutes educating my family on the basics of living a reduced/no-plastic lifestyle.

I will purchase beauty products that are packaged in sustainable packaging.

I will replace 2 plastic bottles with glass or stainless steel alternatives.

I will start a compost collection at home, work, or school.

I will paint rooms in my home with low/no VOC or natural paints.

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

When available, I will purchase clothing made with natural fibers, such as cotton, linen, or wool, rather than synthetic fibers.

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

I will make my own cleaning products at home.

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

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

I will properly recycle used contact lenses and packaging.

I will keep 4 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will keep 3 plastic cutlery out of the landfill per day by using my own reusable cutlery.

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