Historically, marginalized and low-income communities live closer to landfills, contributing to a multitude of health problems. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate.

I will avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill each day by composting my food or learning how to.

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

I will avoid sending 2 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper each day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided.
