I will cook 2 meal(s) with zero-waste each day

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will take a walk for 30 minutes each day.

I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

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

I will spend at least 30 minutes finding out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.

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 spend 30 minutes learning about food deserts and find out how I can advocate for healthy and fresh food in my region.

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

I will complete an online energy audit of my home, office, or dorm room and identify my next steps for saving energy.

I will use the resource links provided and spend 60 minutes learning about the native populations that lived in my area prior to colonization, and what I can do to support those that still exist.

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

I will volunteer 5 hour(s) in my community during the challenge.

I will cut my car trip mileage by only taking necessary trips.
