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

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

I will pick up 10 piece(s) of litter each day.

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

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

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

I will spend at least 10 minutes researching how to properly dispose of bioplastics in my city and share this information with 5 friends, family, and/or colleagues.

I will make my environmental actions visible by posting to my social media networks.

I will give a shout-out on social media to a local company, coworker, friend or family member for their plastic free or green efforts.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 5 minutes researching which materials are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community and recycle only those items.
