When I need to replace my dish soap, I will switch to a bar or refillable option.

I will keep 3 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own reusable straw.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 8 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

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

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 recycle used contact lenses and packaging.

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

Wipes don't break down in sewer systems, but combine with fat to create massive clogs. I will find alternatives to using disposable wipes.

I will make my own cleaning products or choose plastic-free, refillable options.

If possible, I will avoid sending 3 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day by using a reusable mug or bringing my own travel cup.

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