I will learn about sustainable fashion and begin trying to practice it in my own life.

I will keep 6 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will find out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in recycling dumpsters or my curbside bin.

I will avoid sending 6 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will advocate for alternatives to single-use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, at work, or on campus to reduce pollution in the environment and in local communities.

If at all possible, I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

Cheap, single-use items and disposable packaging end up blowing around as litter more often in poor and POC-majority neighborhoods. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate.

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

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 6 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 up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill each day by composting my food or learning how to.

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

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

I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 6 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.
