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 make an appointment for my annual physical.

I will spend 15 minutes researching toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.

I will use the 'Learn More' resources below to find where I can forage for my own food locally.

I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.

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 not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

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

I will spend 30 minutes learning about food deserts and find out how I can advocate for healthy and fresh food in my region.

I will spend at least 30 minutes finding out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.

I will collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

I will enjoy 2 meal(s) each day free of processed foods.

Historically, marginalized and low-income communities live closer to landfills, contributing to a multitude of health problems. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate.

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.

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.
