I will recycle my plastic containers at work, and if I can't find a recycling bin I'll bring the item home with me.

I will skip eating out and bring a lunch from home in reusable containers.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 1 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

I will swap 1 prepackaged snacks for unpackaged fruits or veggies or homemade or bulk items each time we need more.

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.

I will replace my disposable cleaning wipes with a reusable brush or cloth.

I will make  3 of my own cleaning products (cleaners, detergents, soaps) instead of buying them in new spray bottles each time.

I will recycle 1 plastic caps per day by placing them back on the plastic bottles before placing them in my recycling bin.
