I will enjoy 3 meal(s) each day free of processed foods.

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 30 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

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

I will adopt a diet free of refined sugars, which eliminates sweetened beverages, candy, and processed foods.

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.

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

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 spend at least 60 minutes learning about water and air quality issues in my area, how they are impacting human and environmental health, and how I can help.

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

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

I will volunteer 2 hour(s) in my community during the challenge.

I will spend 60 minutes researching environmental justice concerns in my region, their causes, and local initiatives to address these concerns.

If buying a plane ticket, I will also buy a carbon offset.
