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

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 avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.
