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 raise money to support a nonprofit dedicated to plastic pollution reduction.

I will make my environmental actions visible by posting to my social media networks.

I will spend 30 minutes learning how to compost pet waste at home or research pet waste composting services available in my area.

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

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

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 use reusable dishes and silverware when eating at work.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Remind family members each day to live more sustainably and use less plastic in their lives.
