I will replace 15 minute(s) each day typically spent inside (computer time, watching television, etc.) with quality time outside.

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

I will spend 30 minutes researching toxic chemicals found in cleaning supplies and personal care products and remove them from my home.

I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.

Historically, marginalized and low-income communities live closer to landfills, contributing to a multitude of health problems. I will find out how I can limit single-use items and do my best to limit the waste I generate.

I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.

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 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 collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.

I will work from home 6 day(s) to avoid my commute's carbon output.

If buying a plane ticket, I will also buy a carbon offset.
