I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips.

I will enjoy 2 meatless meal(s) and/or 2 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of C02 over the course of the next year.

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

I will power down my computer and monitor when not using it for more than 2 hours, saving up to (1.1) lbs of CO2 each day that I do this.

Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 30 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.

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 find out who in my state makes decisions that impact the environment and express my support for more environmental actions.

I will volunteer 2 hour(s) in my community during the challenge.

I will prevent water runoff and increase absorbency by mulching the base of plants and trees at my home or work.
