Both system and personal sustainability are important! I will develop a plan with my medical professionals to achieve my best health and live my life to the fullest.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 5 minutes researching and recycling all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.

I will keep 1 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will advocate for alternatives to single-use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, at work, or on campus.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will cook 1 meal(s) with zero-waste each day
