M&M G

I will use laundry detergent that is packaged in glass or aluminum, or an alternative like soap nuts.

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

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

I will hang-dry my laundry to use the sun as a natural bleach alternative, or use another natural bleach alternative.

I will advocate for alternatives to single use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, or work.

I will talk to the owner or manager of a restaurant I frequent to request that they reduce their use of single-use and disposable plastics.

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

I will write or sign 1 letters, emails or petitions per day to advocate for plastic-free or planet-friendly policies.

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

When available, I will purchase clothing and bedding made with natural fibers, such as cotton, linen, or wool, rather than synthetic fibers.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 30 minutes researching which materials are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community and recycle only those items.

I will switch to a plastic-free deodorant — whether purchased or DIY'd.

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

I will make 1 phone call(s) per day to a public official or company to advocate for planet-friendly policies.

I will replace my plastic toothbrush with a bamboo toothbrush.

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

If traveling, I will reuse my old travel tubes to refill with my soaps or only bring bar soaps with me.

I will switch to a plastic-free toothpaste — whether purchased or DIY'd.
