I will spend 20 minutes learning about the costs of fast fashion and begin trying to practice sustainable fashion in my own life.

I will spend at least 5 minutes researching the impacts of bioplastics and how to properly dispose of them in my city, and I will share this information with 5 friends, family, and/or colleagues.

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

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

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

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

I will pick up 3 piece(s) of litter each day.

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

I will conduct a waste audit - including recyclables and compost - to understand how much waste I create and where I can reduce the most.

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

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

I will give my pets natural alternatives to toys like femur bones and antlers, canvas, natural rubber, hemp, rope or cotton toys. Or make our own toys from recycled items found in our home!

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