I know they're all around us and we're not conscious all the time, but as much as possible - avoid plastics
it's hard to think that they've not been around that long and people managed their storage needs before then (they had less stuff too)
be conscious of which plastics are recyclable and to what extent
and remember that our market imperative to consume is in direct conflict with the environment, so we're really in a no-win situation
I've probably posted this before

There is also one environmental deed that is a complete taboo. It has to do with a certain biological imperative, and I don't think most people would seriously even consider it.
