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

If possible, I will avoid sending 3 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day by using a reusable mug or bringing my own travel cup.

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

I will keep 3 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own reusable straw.

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

I will use reusable dishes and silverware when eating at work.

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

I will make the switch to sustainable, reusable period products.

I will write or sign 2 letters, emails or petitions per day to advocate for plastic-free or planet-friendly policies.

Long showers can reduce water in the rivers and lakes, creating dead zones for animals and plants. When taking showers I will reduce my time to a 10 minute maximum.
