I will plant a herb or vegetable garden using as little plastic as possible and to save from the plastic used buying herbs and veggies.

When it's time to buy more, I will replace my beauty products with refillable, sustainable, and/or DIY options.

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

I will purchase food items with the least amount of packaging.

I will conduct a waste audit - including recyclables and compost - to understand how much waste I create and where I can reduce the most.

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

If traveling, I will bring my own snacks and meals in my own containers to avoid the waste of take-out containers.

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

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

When I need to replace my dish soap, I will switch to a bar or refillable option.
