I will ditch plastic wrap and use reusable containers, lids or wraps instead.

I will use a restaurant's deposit system for reusable cups and/or takeout containers.

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

I will make  1 of my own cleaning products (cleaners, detergents, soaps) instead of buying them in new spray bottles each time.

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

I will wash my clothing in cold water and hang it to dry to reduce the amount of microplastic shedding and to prolong the life of my garments.

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

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

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