Veronica Solis

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

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

I will use the resource links provided and spend 30 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 host a house party with 4 friends and/or colleagues to watch a movie or present a guest speaker on an environmental issue that matters to me.

I will spend 30 minutes researching environmental justice concerns in my region, their causes, and local initiatives to address these concerns.

I will watch 2 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 write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

I will advocate for alternatives to single-use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, at work, or on campus.

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

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

I will enjoy 1 meal(s) each day free of processed foods.
