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

I will keep 1 plastic cutlery out of the landfill per day by using my own reusable cutlery.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 2 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

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

I will prepare meals at home each day without using any items packaged in single-use plastic.

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

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

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

If possible, I will avoid sending 3 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day by using a reusable mug or bringing my own travel cup.
