I will prepare meals at home each day without using any items packaged in single-use plastic.

I will replace my disposable razors with steel razors.

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

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

I will give up gum or choose gum made from chicle or other plastic-free gum bases.

I will donate 8 zero waste period kits to young people with periods so that they can reduce their waste and the financial burden of menstruation while continuing their education.

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

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

I will only pack reusable cutlery, drinkware and tupperware-like containers in my children's lunches to reduce plastic waste.
