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

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

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

I will reduce food waste and save money by planning a weekly menu, only buying the ingredients I need.

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.

Using higher efficiency sprinkler heads, I will reduce unnecessary water usage.
