I will lobby my workplace to have reusable dishes and silverware in order to minimize disposables.

I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own reusable straw.

Watch film "Smog of the Sea" to learn more about the impact of plastic in our oceans. Be inspired by the unique crew and see that anyone can make a difference.

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

I will host a watch party with friends and/or colleagues to watch and discuss a movie about plastics.

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

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 purchase food items with the least amount of packaging.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 4 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

I will keep 3 plastic cutlery out of the landfill per day by using my own reusable cutlery.
