I will replace single use diapers with reusable cloth diapers.

I will give my pets natural alternatives to toys like femur bones and antlers, canvas, natural rubber, hemp, rope or cotton toys. Or make our own toys from recycled items found in our home!

Although a long-standing festive tradition, balloons are harmful for animals and the environment. I will spend 15 learning about the dangers of balloons and find eco-friendly alternatives to use instead.

I will paint rooms in my home with low/no VOC or natural paints.

I will replace my plastic toothbrush with a bamboo toothbrush.

I will recycle used contact lenses and packaging.

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

Because many tea bags and most sleeves and sachets contain plastic, I will switch to using loose leaf tea.

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

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

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.

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

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