Both system and personal sustainability are important! I will develop a plan with my medical professionals to achieve my best health and live my life to the fullest.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 6 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will watch 1 documentary(ies) about food sovereignty: the right of local peoples to control their own food systems including markets, ecological resources, food cultures and production methods.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 4 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

I will have a group garage sale with friends, family, and/or neighbors.

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

I will replace inefficient heating and cooling units.

I will avoid sending 3 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.

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