Maricar Peregrino

I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning, pickling, or baking bread.

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.

I will spend 30 minutes researching environmental justice concerns in my region, their causes, and local initiatives to address these concerns.

I will advocate for local and/or organic food options at work or on campus.

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

I will get my Core Four Biometrics tests (blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar and BMI).

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

I will fix faucets or report leaky faucets to facilities that have been wasting up to 9 gallons (34 L) of water per faucet every day.

I will enjoy 1 meal(s) cooked with organic ingredients each day.

I will visit my nearest farm to find out who produces my food, and will learn about the quality of life of those who produce my food in other regions of the world to make better choices when I shop.

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 save up to 12 gallons (45 L) of water a day by flushing only when necessary.
