Brooklyn Holton

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

I will raise money to support Northwest Earth Institute or another local nonprofit.

I will avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill each day by composting my food or learning how to.

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 30 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard.

I will plant an herb garden in my home, workplace, or dorm room.

I will spend 10 minutes each day maintaining a record of all my purchases and learning about my spending habits.

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 write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of C02 over the course of the next year.
