I will avoid sending 1 disposable cup(s) to the landfill each day by using a reusable mug.

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

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

I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 10 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.

I will replace manual thermostats with programmable ones.

I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.

I will replace 4 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

I will replace inefficient heating and cooling units.

I will raise money to support Northwest Earth Institute or another local nonprofit.
