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

I will swap out 1 prepackaged snacks a day for fresh fruits or veggies.

Plastic production, not just disposal, pollutes communities and harms people. I will learn about the impacts of plastic production on humans, animals, communities, and the environment.

I will recycle used contact lenses and packaging.

I will spend 30 minutes learning about the costs of fast fashion and begin trying to practice sustainable fashion in my own life.

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

I selected the recyle contacts action, but have choosen to wear my glasses instead the past few days That's better...reduce use of disposable contacts.

Although a long-standing festive tradition, balloons are harmful for animals and the environment. I will spend 20 learning about the dangers of balloons and find eco-friendly alternatives to use instead.

I will conduct a waste audit - including recyclables and compost - to understand how much waste I create and where I can reduce the most.

I will replace 1 plastic bottles with glass or stainless steel alternatives.
