The event was fun, t+shirt is a nice souvenir but don't need all of them and they are special to me. I'll re-purpose and sew into carry bags and/or drying cloths

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

I will replace my plastic toothbrush with a bamboo toothbrush.

I will swap out 10 prepackaged snacks a day for fresh fruits or veggies.

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

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

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

I will volunteer 4 hour(s) in my community.

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

I will provide daily plastic free alternatives (straws, water bottles, cuttlery, bar soap, bamboo toothbrushes, etc.) for my family to use.

I will keep 3 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

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

I will spend 15 minutes educating my family on the basics of living a reduced/no-plastic lifestyle.

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

I will only buy cloth, wooden or plant-based natural rubber toys. Or make our own toys from recycled items found in our home!
