Erica Farrell

I will spend at least 30 minutes researching how to properly dispose of bioplastics in my city and share this information with 10 friends, family, and/or colleagues.

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

I will make my environmental actions visible by posting to my social media networks.

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

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

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

If possible, I will avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day by using a reusable mug or bringing my own travel cup.

I will pick up 1 piece(s) of litter each day.

I will give a shout-out on social media to a local company, coworker, friend or family member for their plastic free or green efforts.

I will visit the rePurpose website, complete the 3-minute plastic consumption calculator, and explore how I can reBalance my annual plastic footprint.

Using the action resource links below, my family will spend 60 minutes learning about environmental justice, causes of environmental injustice, and how plastic waste disproportionately impacts already vulnerable communities.
