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

Contamination makes the recycling process more difficult. I will review which materials are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my county and recycle only those items. 

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

I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases, including produce bags.

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 avoid 2 plastic bags each shopping trip by not bagging my produce or using reusable produce bags.

I will ditch the zippered plastic bags for food storage and switch to reusable containers.
