An initiative reducing reliance on plastic shopping bags. It provides a backup option for those who forget their own fabric bags. We would like to implement it in our site so that some fabric bag is always on hand in the office.

I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.

I will collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

I will avoid sending 5 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 2 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

I will avoid buying toxic plastics - including polycarbonate, polystyrene and polyvinyl - and instead replace them with bioplastic or durable options.

I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning, pickling, or baking bread.

I will enjoy 3 meatless meal(s) and/or 1 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

I will advocate for local and/or organic food options at work or on campus.
