Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 10 minutes researching and recycling all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.

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

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

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of C02 over the course of the next year.
