If traveling, I will reuse my old travel tubes to refill with my soaps or only bring bar soaps with me in a TSA-approved reusable quart-sized bag.

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

I will not buy anything except items required for health and safety.

I will create or support a sharing economy with family, friends, and neighbors.

I will spend 10 minutes learning about the costs of fast fashion and begin trying to practice sustainable fashion in my own life.

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

Because many tea bags and most sleeves and sachets contain plastic, I will switch to using loose leaf tea.

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

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

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

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

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

I will switch to a plastic-free deodorant — whether purchased or DIY'd.
