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

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by opting into paperless billing and ending unwanted subscriptions.

I will spend 30 minutes researching environmental justice concerns in my region, their causes, and local initiatives to address these concerns.

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

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

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 4 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will avoid sending 4 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will spend 30 minutes learning about food deserts and find out how I can advocate for healthy and fresh food in my region.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will visit my nearest farm to find out who produces my food, and will learn about the quality of life of those who produce my food in other regions of the world to make better choices when I shop.
