I will talk to the owner or manager of a restaurant I frequent to request that they reduce their use of single-use and disposable plastics.

If possible, I will avoid sending 3 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day by using a reusable mug or bringing my own travel cup.

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

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

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

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

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

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 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 purchase food items with the least amount of packaging.

I will spend 5 minutes learning about the costs of fast fashion and begin trying to practice sustainable fashion in my own life.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 1 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.
