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

Using the action resource links below, my family will spend 30 minutes learning about environmental justice, causes of environmental injustice, and how plastic waste disproportionately impacts already vulnerable communities.

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

I will replace 6 plastic bottles with glass or stainless steel alternatives.

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

I will spend 15 minutes educating my family on the basics of living a reduced/no-plastic lifestyle.

I will try new recipe(s) or food preparation method(s) each day, such as canning, pickling, making yogurt, or baking granola bars or bread.

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

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 3 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

I will swap out 10 prepackaged snacks a day for fresh fruits or veggies.

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