I will ditch the sponge and use a reusable or compostable option such as a brush, scrubber or dishrag instead.

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

I will swap 1 prepackaged snacks for unpackaged fruits or veggies or homemade or bulk items each time we need more.

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 buying toxic plastics, including polyvinyl, polystyrene and polycarbonate (#3,#6 and #7).

I will use reusable containers when freezing food and opt for glass or metal when purchasing new containers.

I will use reusable dishes and silverware when eating at work.

I will switch to compostable floss in a reusable container.

I will avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day by using a reusable mug or bringing my own collapsible cup.
