I will spend at least 10 minutes researching how to properly dispose of bioplastics in my city and share this information with 1 friends, family, and/or colleagues.

I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own reusable straw.

I will use wool dryer balls or another plastic-free alternative to dryer sheets to keep my clothes static-free.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 1 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

If possible, I will avoid sending 4 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day by using a reusable mug or bringing my own travel cup.

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

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

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.

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

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

I will lobby my workplace to have reusable dishes and silverware in order to minimize disposables.
