Donald Ashcraft

I will visit my nearest farm to find out who produces my food, and will learn about the quality of life of those who produce my food in other regions of the world to make better choices when I shop.

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

I will advocate for local and/or organic food options at work or on campus.

I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.

I will connect with a local nonprofit, environmental or otherwise, and find out how I can get involved or become a member.

I will avoid wasting water while waiting for the shower or sink to heat up.

I will use public transit 90 mile(s) each day and avoid sending up to 159.44 lbs of CO2 into Earth's atmosphere.

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 keep 2 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.

I will spend at least 10 minutes finding out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 20 minutes researching and recycling all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.

I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper each day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided.
