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 a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 3 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

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

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

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

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

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.

If possible, I will avoid sending 2 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day by using a reusable mug or bringing my own travel cup.

I will swap out my single use plastic bags for a pooper-scooper.

I will only buy cloth, wooden or plant-based natural rubber toys. Or make our own toys from recycled items found in our home!
