I will read through the three emails each week to learn more about plastic and get ideas on how to use less.

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

I will reuse existing bags such as pet food bags, grocery bags, or online shopping bags to line my trash bins (or go without plastic liners) and offset using as many new bags as possible.

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

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

I will replace my [item] with a reusable [item] in the bathroom (disposable cups, makeup wipes and soap dispensers, etc.).

I will swap 2 prepackaged snacks for unpackaged fruits or veggies or homemade or bulk items each time we need more.

Each trip to the grocery store I will purchase 2 products from the bulk section using my own containers.

I will purchase clothing made with natural fibers, such as cotton, linen, or wool, rather than synthetic fibers like polyester, nylon, acrylic or spandex.
