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

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

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

I will make the switch to sustainable, reusable period products.

No baggies or plastic wrap. Using washable containers and beeswaxed cloth wraps for packing luches and wrapping up leftovers

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

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

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

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

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

If possible, I will avoid sending 2 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day by using a reusable mug or bringing my own travel cup.

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