  1. Stop using plastic straws, even in restaurants. If a straw is a must, purchase a reusable stainless steel or glass straw
  2. Use a reusable produce bag. A single plastic bag can take 1,000 years to degrade.
  3. Purchase or make your own reusable produce bag and be sure to wash them often!
  4. Give up gum. Gum is made of a synthetic rubber, aka plastic.
  5. Buy boxes instead of bottles. Often, products like laundry detergent come in cardboard which is more easily recycled than plastic.
  6. Purchase food, like cereal, pasta, and rice from bulk bins and fill a reusable bag or container.
  7. You save money and unnecessary packaging.
  8. Reuse containers for storing leftovers or shopping in bulk.
  9. Use a reusable bottle or mug for your beverages, even when ordering from a to-go shop.
