I will spend 60 minutes finding out where landfills and/or toxic waste sites are situated in my region and which communities are most impacted by these sites.

I will meet 2 new neighbor(s) each day.

I will visit my nearest farm to find out who produces my food, and will learn about the quality of life of those around the world who produce my food in order to make better choices when I shop.

I will take a 60-minute walk outside each day.

I will adjust my thermostat down 2 degrees from usual when I use the heat, and up 2 degrees when I use air conditioning.

I will prevent water runoff and increase absorbency by mulching the base of plants and trees at my home or work.

I will spend 110 minute(s) per day outside, practicing gratitude (prayer, meditation, journaling, etc.) for Earth and my natural surroundings.

I will sign up for a local CSA (Community-Supported Agriculture).

I will enjoy 2 meal(s) cooked with organic ingredients each day.

I will visit seafoodwatch.org or download the app and commit to making better seafood choices for a healthier ocean.

I will reduce food waste and save money by planning a weekly menu, only buying the ingredients I need.

I will advocate for alternatives to single-use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, at work, or on campus to reduce pollution in the environment and in local communities.

I will avoid sending 2 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will keep 3 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.
