Using reusable coffee mugs that my organization provided me helps to minimize the plastics/throw away containers.
Modal Description
Watch the short video below to learn the basics.
You'll be an Plastic-Free Challenge expert in no time!
I will visit a co-op or zero waste store to check out my local options for bulk products and plastic-free items.
Throughout its life cycle, polystyrene (styrofoam) can harm people, communities, and the planet. I will refuse styrofoam whenever I can.
If traveling, I will reuse my old travel tubes to refill with my soaps or only bring bar soaps with me
I will plan an herb or vegetable garden for next year at my home, workplace, or community garden.
I will make 2 of my own cleaning products (cleaners, detergents, soaps) instead of buying them in new spray bottles each time.
I will purchase toothpaste powder or toothpaste tabs in plastic-free packaging.
I will avoid 2 plastic bags each shopping trip by not bagging my produce or using reusable produce bags.
I will use reusable dishes and silverware when eating at work.
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 pick up 3 piece(s) of plastic litter each day and dispose of it responsibly.
Reflection, encouragement, and relationship building are all important aspects of getting a new habit to stick.
Share thoughts, encourage others, and reinforce positive new habits on the Feed.
To get started, share “your why.” Why did you join the challenge and choose the actions you did?
