If at all possible, I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 5 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will save up to 8 gallons (30 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.

I will avoid sending 4 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will spend 25 minutes finding out where landfills and/or toxic waste sites are situated in my region and which communities are most impacted by these sites.

I will keep 2 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.
