Reduce: First and foremost, REDUCE plastic usage. Find alternatives you can use instead. Lucky for you, this article is packed with simple and practical ways you can cut out plastic in your life.
Refuse: When single-use plastics are offered to you, politely REFUSE them. Try to break the habit of accepting that bottle of water or taking the straw that is handed to you along with your smoothie. Just say no.
Reuse: When you do end up with a plastic item (it happens to all of us), REUSE it as many times as you can. Give it more than one life.
Repair: Something broken? Instead of making it a habit of throwing things out right away, try your best to fix them first. You’d be surprised what a little duct tape or needle and thread can do.
Recycle: As a last resort, RECYCLE the plastic items you have once they can’t be used anymore. And be sure you’re recycling them properly.
