I will save up to 15 gallons (56 L) of water a day by installing a low-flow showerhead.

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

I will purchase produce and meat from a local farmers market or food co-op.

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

At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 60 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard.

I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning, pickling, or baking bread.

I will find out who in my state makes decisions that impact the environment and express my support for more environmental actions.

I will work from home 1 day(s) to avoid my commute's carbon output.

I will watch 1 documentary(ies) about food sovereignty: the right of local peoples to control their own food systems including markets, ecological resources, food cultures and production methods.

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

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 20 minutes researching and recycling all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 30 minute(s) each day.
