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

I will support the sharing economy by joining a community tool exchange, toy library, or buy nothing group.

I will ditch zippered plastic bags and/or plastic wrap and switch to reusable containers or wrap for food storage.

I will stop buying water and instead use water from the tap or invest in a water filter if water quality is a concern.

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.
