I will scrape, rather than rinse, dishes before loading into the dishwasher and only run the dishwasher when it’s full.

I will spend at least 5 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When marine wildlife ingest plastic, they have a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

I will watch 1 documentary(ies) about food sovereignty: the right of local peoples to control their own food systems including markets, ecological resources, food cultures and production methods.
