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

I'll check locally for 3 items I need before shopping online to avoid shipping waste.

I will refuse all items that come in packaging for the entire day.

I will adopt a "Needs vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

I will only pack reusable cutlery, drinkware and reusable containers in my children's lunches to reduce plastic waste.

I will borrow 1 toys for my kids instead of buying new or used.

I will avoid items marketed to first-time parents and instead use or refurbish items I already have or get them from friends or family.

I will buy 2 items of clothing from secondhand outlets instead of new clothes for my child/children.

I will spend 5 minutes educating my family on the basics of living a zero-waste lifestyle.
