I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 3 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

I will save up to 20 gallons (75 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

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 save up to 15 gallons (56 L) of water a day by installing a low-flow showerhead.

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

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

I will plant an herb garden in my home, workplace, or dorm room.
