I will avoid sending up to .69 lbs (.31 kg) of food waste to the landfill each day by composting my food or learning how to.

I will organize one of NWEI's discussion courses on food sustainability, 'Menu for the Future' or 'Hungry for Change', with my family, friends, coworkers, or classmates.

I will cook 5 meal(s) with zero-waste each day

I will start a recycling program at my workplace or school. If a recycling program exists, I will advocate for ways to improve and expand it.

I will de-clutter, clean, and donate or recycle unneeded items in my home.

I will use the 'Learn More' resources below to find where I can forage for my own food locally.

I will avoid wasting water while waiting for the shower or sink to heat up.

I will host a house party with 20 friends and/or colleagues to watch a movie or present a guest speaker on an environmental issue that matters to me.

I will carry all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash with me to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

I will sign up for a car-sharing service, or organize car sharing with my neighbors, to cut down on the number of vehicles on the road.

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 improve a bus stop in my neighborhood by posting the stop schedule, adding seating or shelter, adding art or flowers, picking up litter, or some other small improvement.

I will sign up for my utility company's clean/renewable energy option.
