I will conduct a waste audit - including recyclables and compost - to understand how much waste I create and where I can reduce the most.

I will calculate my ecological footprint, and from the results brainstorm and take action on ways I can reduce my annual footprint.

I will use laundry detergent that is packaged in glass or aluminum, or an alternative like soap nuts.

I will use a microfiber catcher in my laundry, or install a microfiber filter for my washing machine.

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

I will swap out 3 prepackaged snacks a day for fresh fruits or veggies.

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