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

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

I will visit seafoodwatch.org or download the app and commit to making better seafood choices for a healthier ocean.

I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

I will cook 1 meal(s) with zero-waste each day

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

I will create a rain garden or bioswale, or use rain barrels to collect water for outdoor watering needs.

I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.
