Manufacturers want you to replace your phones every year. I will keep my phone for at least 3 years and make any necessary repairs or updates to keep it functioning as long as possible.

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

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

I will cut single-use plastics out of my morning drink by switching to reusable coffee pods, tea infusers, and bulk beans or tea leaves.

I will avoid 3 plastic bags each shopping trip by not bagging my produce or using reusable produce bags.
