Ron's actions
Health
Go get a check up
I will make an appointment for my annual physical.
Health
Happiness
I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.
Waste
Skip the Straw
Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.
Waste
Recycle Everything I Can
Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 15 minutes researching and recycling all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.
Waste
Use a Reusable Water Bottle
I will keep 4 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.
Energy
Online Energy Audit
I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.
Nature
Join An Outdoor Project
I will join an outdoor restoration project in my community.
Energy
Adjust the Thermostat
I will adjust my thermostat down 2 degrees from usual when I use the heat, and up 2 degrees when I use air conditioning.

Ron Gile 9/25/2018 1:12 PMDoes this start in October? Are we just "warming up" right now?-
Jacob Sanchez 9/25/2018 1:35 PMYep, it starts October 3rd! For now, I would recommend you go ahead and explore/select the personal actions you'd like to take during the challenge. I'll send out an email on that as we get closer. -
