Julia Albano

I will sign up for my utility company's clean/renewable energy option.

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 make an appointment for my annual physical.

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

I will get my Core Four Biometrics tests (blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar and BMI).

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

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

I will sign up for a car-sharing service, or organize car sharing with my neighbors, to cut down on the number of vehicles on the road.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 2 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

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

I will take a 15-minute walk outside each day.

I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 20 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.

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 enjoy 1 meatless meal(s) and/or 1 vegan meal(s) each day this week.
