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

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

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

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

I will make the switch to sustainable, reusable period products.

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

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

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

I will only buy cloth, wooden or plant-based natural rubber toys. Or make our own toys from recycled items found in our home!

I will paint rooms in my home with low/no VOC or natural paints.

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.

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

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 4 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

I will keep 1 plastic cutlery out of the landfill per day by using my own reusable cutlery.

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

I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own reusable straw.

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