I will prepare my own pet treats to avoid plastic packaging.

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

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 swap out my cat's litter for sawdust, mulch, or dirt with baking soda.

I will replace my plastic toothbrush with a bamboo toothbrush.

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

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

If traveling, I will bring my own snacks and meals in my own containers to avoid the waste of take-out containers.

I will swap out 2 prepackaged snacks a day for fresh fruits or veggies.

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

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