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

I will make my environmental actions visible by sharing about them on my social media networks and the Plastic Free Ecochallenge participant feed.

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 replace my soaps, shampoos, conditioners, and lotions with sustainable, unpackaged, or refillable options.

I will swap out my single use plastic bags for a pooper-scooper.

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

I will not buy anything except items required for health and safety.

I will use a microfiber catcher in my laundry, or install a microfiber filter for my washing machine.

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

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

The numbers #1-7 on plastics tell us a lot - and can help us be better recyclers. I will learn what these numbers mean and which types of plastics are accepted for recycling in my area.

I will donate 10 zero waste period kits to young people with periods so that they can reduce their waste and the financial burden of menstruation while continuing their education.
