  1. I lead a plastic and polybag-free life. I carry my cloth and paper bags for all my shopping. I politely excuse myself from taking plastic bags any all shops irrespective of the place in India or abroad. My tiffin office bag is a beautiful handicraft item from Gujarat.
  1. I responsibly segregate my daily household waste on a day-to-day basis, into wet, dry, and hazardous waste. I also responsibly dispose-off household E-waste in the electronic waste bin provided by our housing society at the clubhouse at the end of every month.
  1. I and my family try to conserve water to the best of my ability. I don't run the tap while brushing my teeth. I use a cup for rinsing my mouth at the end. We use a washing machine at the appropriate water-saving levels for the cloth load being washed daily at my home. We also try and reuse the water left from washing vegetables in the kitchen to water my balcony plants. We also use an Earthen pot for drinking water cooling.
  1. I and my family have stopped having all processed food. We make everything at home from farm vegetables coming to my home from OES farm or from the local farmer's market near my society. I don't buy from Grocery stores and try and help poor producers and not let them get exploited in this way.
