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.

I will pick up 5 piece(s) of litter each day.

I will replace my soaps, shampoos, conditioners, and lotions with a sustainable, unpackaged, or refillable option.

I will replace my dish brush with a bamboo dish brush.

Throughout its life cycle, polystyrene (styrofoam) can harm people, communities, and the planet. I will refuse styrofoam whenever I can, making sure to kindly let people know why I'm asking for alternative packaging.

I will host or participate in a beach, highway, river, or other cleanup effort in my community that follows the CDC’s current guidelines for prevention of disease transfer.

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.
