At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 15 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard.

I will join an outdoor restoration project in my community.

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

I will spend at least 10 minutes learning about water and air quality issues in my area, how they are impacting human and environmental health, and how I can help.

I will eat a heart healthy diet by adding 2 cup(s) of fruits and vegetables each day to achieve at least 4 cups per day.

I will save up to .21 lbs (.09 kg) of paper each day by switching from one-sided printing to two-sided.

I will avoid sending 2 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

I will spend 10 minutes researching toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.

Contamination prevents what is recyclable from being recycled. I will spend 2 minutes researching and recycling all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.

I will spend at least 5 minutes finding out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.

I will keep 1 disposable plastic bottle(s) from entering the waste stream by using a reusable water bottle.
