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

Plastics recycling is real, and it works in the Twin Cities metro area when done correctly. I will spend 15 minutes learning about how to correctly recycle plastics in the Twin Cities and where recycled plastics end up.

Instead of trashing them, I will recycle 2 plastic bags per day bringing them to a drop-off or special pickup

I will ditch the sponge and use a reusable or compostable option such as a brush, scrubber or dishrag instead.

I will buy secondhand goods to reduce the demand for new plastic products and avoid packaging.

I will spend 10 minutes conducting a waste audit- including recyclables and compost- to understand how much plastic waste I create and where I can reduce the most.
