Rethink means to stop and think about alternatives with less trash.

• Avoid disposable items that create trash. Choose reusable and recyclable items.
• Say no to items you do not need or will not use.
  • At a store, say no to a bag when you buy one item.
  
  • At a restaurant, say no to extra napkins or condiments (ex. ketchup packets) that you will not use.

Be creative! Come up with your own ways to create less trash!

An example of how to rethink is: to say no to a bag when buying one item at a store. to ask for extra bags you do not need.
