Parker Herout

I will work from home 2 day(s) to avoid my commute's carbon output.

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

I will tend to a garden each day, or work on starting one.

I will find out who in my state makes decisions that impact the environment and express my support for more environmental actions.

I will replace 3 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home.

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

I will replace 5 minute(s) each day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 30 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

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

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

My goal is to not buy anything I don't need anymore. Hopefully, this will declutter my life and prevent waste.
