I will conduct a waste audit - including recyclables and compostables - to understand how much waste I create and where I can reduce the most.

I will assemble an eating-out bag with cloth napkins and reusable utensils, containers, and cups and use it to avoid disposable to-go containers and cutlery for 1 meals each day.

I will not wash my clothes after every wear to increase the life of my clothing.

I will mend 1 items of clothing instead of replacing them with new clothing.

I will spend 60 minutes learning about sustainable fashion and fast fashion and start applying what I learn to my own life.

I will replace a store-bought item with a homemade item to reduce packaging waste.

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

My household will sign up for organics recycling service or start using a drop-off site to compost food waste and food-soiled paper.

I will recycle the right materials by educating myself on what goes in the bin and keep other things out. 

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by 3.4lbs (1.5kg) a month or 41lbs (18.6kg) a year by opting into paperless billing, ending unwanted subscriptions and opting out of junk mail.
