I buy in bulk when I can to reduce the amount of packaging, use reusable containers/bags for things like taking my lunch to work, use reusable menstrual products, recycle everything I can (including the items that have to be returned to the store, although that gets done infrequently because I tend to forget to take it all with me when I go to the shops ), repair what items I can instead of replacing them, only use reusable bags when I'm shopping (that one's actually super easy - plastic bags are being phased out here so most places either discourage or don't accept them anyway), and have a metal cutlery set in my bag that I can use if I get food while I'm out so I don't have to rely on disposable ones. I did also used to use a reusable coffee cup when I got takeaway drinks, but they stopped allowing that when the pandemic hit due to health concerns and I'm not sure if that's been reversed yet. I know there's probably more I could be doing, but every little bit counts!
