I will talk to the owner or manager of a restaurant I frequent to request that they reduce their use of single-use and disposable plastics.

I will use reusable dishes and silverware when eating at work.

I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 10 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.

If possible, I will avoid sending 10 disposable cup(s) to the landfill per day by using a reusable mug or bringing my own travel cup.

I will keep 6 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own reusable straw.

I will give up gum or choose gum made from chicle or other plastic-free gum bases.

I will purchase food items with the least amount of packaging.

I will plant a herb or vegetable garden using as little plastic as possible and to save from the plastic used buying herbs and veggies.

I will only use reusable containers instead of single-use plastic storage items (such as plastic wrap, single-use sandwich bags).

I will prepare meals at home each day without using any items packaged in single-use plastic.

Because many tea bags and most sleeves and sachets contain plastic, I will switch to using loose leaf tea.

When possible, I will not use disposable bags when shopping, including produce bags.
