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 spend 10 minutes conducting a waste audit- including recyclables and compost- to understand how much plastic waste I create and where I can reduce the most.

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

I will complete a plastic consumption calculator to learn about my plastic footprint.

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

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