I will give up gum or choose gum made from chicle or other plastic-free gum bases.

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

I will keep 4 plastic cutlery out of the landfill per day by using my own reusable cutlery.

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

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

I will spend 10 minutes finding out where landfills and/or toxic waste sites are situated in my region and which communities are most impacted by these sites.

I will spend 20 minutes educating my family on the basics of living a reduced/no-plastic lifestyle.

I will teach my little ones about microplastics while we do a craft project together using glitter alternatives.

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.

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.

I will replace my disposable razors with steel razors.

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

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

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

I will pick up 6 piece(s) of litter each day.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 3 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.

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