I will replace 20 incandescent lightbulb(s) with Energy Star-certified LED bulbs, saving up to $14 per fixture per year.

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

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

I will reduce the amount of paper mail that I receive by opting into paperless billing and ending unwanted subscriptions.

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

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

I will advocate for alternatives to single-use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, at work, or on campus.

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

Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 30 minute(s) each day.

I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 5 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.

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