I will get my Core Four Biometrics tests (blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar and BMI).

I will spend 60 minutes researching environmental justice concerns in my region, their causes, and local initiatives to address these concerns.

I will spend 60 minutes researching toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.

Both system and personal sustainability are important! I will develop a plan with my medical professionals to achieve my best health and live my life to the fullest.

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by opting into paperless billing and ending unwanted subscriptions.

I will fix faucets or report leaky faucets to facilities that have been wasting up to 9 gallons (34 L) of water per faucet every day.

I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.

I will take a 30-minute walk outside each day.

I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 60 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

I will adopt a diet free of refined sugars, which eliminates sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.

I will replace 5 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

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