I will prepare 3 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 avoid 4 plastic bags each shopping trip by not bagging my produce or using reusable produce bags.

I will swap 3 prepackaged snacks for unpackaged fruits or veggies or homemade or bulk items each time we need more.

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

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

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 learn more about the issues with plastics by picking up one of the books recommended by Hennepin County Library.

I will replace dryer sheets with a reusable alternative or use nothing at all.
