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

I will replace manual thermostats with programmable ones.

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

Historically, marginalized and low-income communities live closer to landfills, contributing to a multitude of health problems. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate.

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

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will replace incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will save up to 15 gallons (56 L) of water a day by installing a low-flow showerhead.
