First Steps: Start with You
Learn how plastic is made
Understanding the origins of plastic helps us see its environmental impact more clearly. I will spend 30 minutes learning how plastic is made — from fossil fuels to finished product — and reflect on how that knowledge influences my choices.
First Steps: Start with You
Understand Plastic’s Impact on My Health
Plastics can leach harmful chemicals into food, water, and the air we breathe. I will spend 30 minutes learning about the health impacts of plastic exposure and explore safer swaps — like choosing glass or stainless steel over plastic for food storage and drinking water.

I've been proud to take part in the Plastic-Free Challenge for many years, and each time I’ve found new ways to cut back on my personal plastic use. This year, my commitment continues—not just to reduce single-use plastics in my daily life, but also to deepen my understanding of how plastics affect our environment and to help raise awareness about their widespread impact.
I’m excited to keep learning, challenging myself, and sharing what I discover with others. 😊
