When it's time to buy more, I will replace my beauty products with refillable, sustainable, and/or DIY options.

Wipes don't break down in sewer systems, but combine with fat to create massive clogs. I will find alternatives to using disposable wipes.

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

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

When available, I will purchase clothing made with natural fibers, such as cotton, linen, or wool, rather than synthetic fibers.

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

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

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

I will use a rubber glove to remove pet hair from clothes, carpets and furniture.

I will replace my disposable razors with steel razors.

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

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

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