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

I will enjoy 2 meatless meal(s) and/or 0 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will watch 3 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.

I will volunteer 4 hour(s) in my community during the challenge.

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

I will avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will use the resource links provided and spend 120 minutes learning about the native populations that lived in my area prior to colonization, and what I can do to support those that still exist.

I will not work more than 8 hour days each day to practice work-life balance.

I will use public transit 8 mile(s) each day and avoid sending up to 2.6 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

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