Jennie Gilbert

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

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

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

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

I will host or participate in a beach, highway, river, or other cleanup effort in my community.

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

I will replace my plastic toothbrush with a bamboo toothbrush.

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

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