I will avoid 1 plastic bags each shopping trip by not bagging my produce or using reusable produce bags.

Instead of trashing them, I will recycle 1 plastic bags per day by bringing them to a drop-off.

I will use a reusable lint brush or vacuum to remove pet hair from clothes, carpets, and furniture.

I will give experiences instead of things for gifts.

I will avoid using disposable decorations, such as balloons and plastic table coverings, for special occasions.

I will replace my soaps, shampoos, and conditioners with a bar, refillable option, or I will make my own.

I will use beauty products that come in plastic-free packaging, refillable packaging, or I will make my own.

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 plan an herb or vegetable garden for next year at my home, workplace, or community garden.

I will make  1 of my own cleaning products (cleaners, detergents, soaps) instead of buying them in new spray bottles each time.
