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

I will use a menstrual cup and/or cloth pads instead of a disposable option.

I will replace my soaps, shampoos, conditioners, and lotions with solid bars or refillable options.
