When possible, I will not use disposable bags when shopping, including produce bags.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 2 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

I will give a shout-out on social media to a local company, coworker, friend or family member for their plastic free or green efforts.

Throughout its life cycle, polystyrene (styrofoam) can harm people, communities, and the planet. I will refuse styrofoam whenever I can, making sure to kindly let people know why I'm asking for alternative packaging.

I will pick up 5 piece(s) of litter each day.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 15 minutes researching which materials are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community and recycle only those items.

I will swap out 3 prepackaged snacks a day for fresh fruits or veggies.

I will spend 20 minutes learning about the costs of fast fashion and begin trying to practice sustainable fashion in my own life.

I will prepare my own pet food to avoid plastic packaging.

I will prepare my own pet treats to avoid plastic packaging.

Use a reusable cup for your Starbucks beverage.
