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

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 save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper per day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will not purchase anything but food and water during the Challenge.

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by opting into paperless billing and subscriptions.

I will only purchase bulk food items and avoid all single-package items.

I will collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

I will not use any disposable plates, cups, or utensils.

I will reduce the amount of unwanted mail I receive (catalogs, phone books, etc.).
