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

I will learn more about the issues with plastics by picking up one of the books recommended by Hennepin County Library.

I will try a new recipe or food preparation method, such as canning, pickling, making yogurt, or baking granola bars or bread.

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 learn about what different descriptions and marketing terms mean when used on plastics.

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