1. Stop
Avoid buying things like one time use water bottles, plastic wrapped ready-meals etc.

Consider alternatives to plastic, and
buy best quality, long lasting products
3. Recycle materials

Speak up
Talk and be open about the ways you reduce your use of plastic and say no to single use plastic cups even in situations where it would be easier just to fit in.
