I will visit a co-op or zero waste store to check out my local options for bulk products and plastic-free items.

I will prepare 1 meal(s) at home each day without using any items packaged in single-use plastic.

Each trip to the grocery store I will purchase 2 products from the bulk section using my own containers.

I will reuse existing bags such as pet food bags, grocery bags, or online shopping bags instead of buying new bags to line my trash containers.

I will watch a documentary film about plastic waste with family and friends and talk about what we learned.

Manufacturers want you to replace your phones every year. I will keep my phone for at least 3 years and make any necessary repairs or updates to keep it functioning as long as possible.

I will avoid buying toxic plastics, including polyvinyl, polystyrene and polycarbonate (#3,#6 and #7).

I will purchase clothing made with natural fibers, such as cotton, linen, or wool, rather than synthetic fibers like polyester, nylon, acrylic or spandex.
