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

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

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 1 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

I will use reusable dishes and silverware when eating at work.

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