Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.

I will make an appointment for my annual physical.

I will purchase produce and meat from a local farmers market or food co-op.

I will enjoy 1 meal(s) each day free of processed foods.

I will spend at least 20 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 enjoy 2 meatless meal(s) and/or 0 vegan meal(s) each day this week.

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

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by opting into paperless billing and ending unwanted subscriptions.

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

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

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.
