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 not buy anything except items required for health and safety.

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

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

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

I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own reusable straw.

I will replace 2 plastic bottles with glass or stainless steel alternatives.
