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

I will pick up 3 piece(s) of litter each day.

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 keep 2 plastic cutlery out of the landfill per day by using my own reusable cutlery.

Throughout its life cycle, polystyrene (styrofoam) can harm people, communities, and the planet. I will refuse styrofoam whenever I can, making sure to kindly let people know why I'm asking for alternative packaging.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 10 minutes researching which materials are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community and recycle only those items.

I will swap out 1 prepackaged snacks a day for fresh fruits or veggies.

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