3. Look for products made from recycled materials that have little or no packaging, or packaging that is recyclable.
4. Try to avoid Styrofoam products—bring your own mug to the coffee shop, and a container for leftovers when you eat out.

6. Make sure all non-recyclable plastics are securely disposed of.
7. Pick up trash on the street and put it in a trash can.
