I will save up to 15 gallons (56 L) of water a day by installing a low-flow showerhead.

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

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 5 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

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

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

I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

I will advocate for alternatives to single-use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, at work, or on campus.

I will carry all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash with me to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

I will collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

I will spend at least 30 minutes finding out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.
