Post to our Team APE feed about an item that you "upcycled" or "creatively reused" and thereby avoided consuming plastic associated with buying a new item and having that item sent to you/your area!

I will keep 5 plastic cutlery out of the landfill per day by using my own reusable cutlery.

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

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

I will switch to a plastic-free deodorant — whether purchased or DIY'd.

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

I will recycle used contact lenses and packaging.

I will swap out 5 prepackaged snacks a day for fresh fruits or veggies.

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

I will replace 10 plastic bottles with glass or stainless steel alternatives.

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).
