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

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

I will reduce food waste and save money by planning a weekly menu, only buying the ingredients I need.

I will avoid sending 4 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

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

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

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

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 10 minutes researching and recycling all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.

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

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