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.

I will make my own cleaning products at home.

I will purchase dry goods from the bulk section of my grocery store, and use my own containers to do so.

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

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

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

I will use a rubber glove to remove pet hair from clothes, carpets and furniture.

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 purchase food items with the least amount of packaging.

I will purchase toothpaste in an aluminum tube or in a glass jar or make my own!

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

I will watch a documentary film about waste with family and friends and talk about what we learned.
