Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.
I will replace 2 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.
I will avoid sending 2 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.
I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.
I will save up to 8 gallons (30 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.
I will replace 10 minute(s) each day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.
I will keep 2 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.
