Dulce Negrete

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will donate unneeded clothing, books, and household items rather than throwing them away.

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

I will avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill per day by composting my food or learning how to.

I will subscribe to yard debris collection so I can compost my yard debris. Action Resource > >

I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

I will save up to 8 gallons (30 L) of water each day by turning it off while brushing my teeth.

I will keep 2 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.
