I will complete a plastic consumption calculator to learn about my plastic footprint.

If traveling, I will reuse my old travel tubes to refill with my soaps or only bring bar soaps with me 

I will purchase toothpaste powder or toothpaste tabs in plastic-free packaging.

I will give my pets toys made of natural materials like wool, hemp, or cotton, or make our own toys from repurposed items found in our home.

I will provide daily plastic-free alternatives (straws, water bottles, cutlery, bar soap, bamboo toothbrushes, etc.) for my family to use.

I will avoid sending 4 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day by using a reusable mug or bringing my own collapsible cup.

Pick one room in your house and determine at least one thing you can switch out in that room from plastic based to plastic free. Report your work in daily reflections.

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

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