I will recycle 2 plastic caps per day by placing them back on the plastic bottles before placing them in my recycling bin.

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

Instead of trashing them, I will recycle 2 plastic bags per day bringing them to a drop-off or special pickup

The numbers #1-7 on plastics tell us a lot and can help us be better recyclers. I will learn more about what the symbols on plastics mean.

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

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

I will prepare 2 meal(s) at home each day without using any items packaged in single-use plastic.

I will make sure any BPI-certified compostable plastic products I use will be disposed of correctly by putting them in my curbside compost/food scraps bin or taking them to a drop-off location and not placing them in the regular recycling.
