Allison Tripp

I will give my pets toys made of natural materials like wool, hemp, or cotton, or make our own toys from repurposed items found in our home.

Manufacturers want you to replace your phones every year. I will keep my phone for at least 3 years and make any necessary repairs or updates to keep it functioning as long as possible.

MNimize works to reduce single-use plastic at food service businesses. I will visit a participating location or tell a business I frequent about the resources available to them.

I will prepare my own pet treats to avoid plastic packaging.

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

I will reuse existing bags such as pet food bags, grocery bags, or online shopping bags to line my trash bins (or go without plastic liners) and offset using as many new bags as possible.
