Pei-Pei's Actions
Waste
Find Local Recycling Depots
I will spend at least 15 minutes finding out where to recycle the recyclable items that I can't put in my curbside bin.
Energy
Switch to Cold Water
I will switch to washing my clothes in cold water, saving up to 1,600 lbs of C02 over the course of the next year.
Nature
Support Local Pollinators
At least 30% of crops and 90% of flowering plants rely on pollinators to produce fruit. I will spend 30 minutes researching which plants support local native pollinators and plant some in my yard.
Health
Exercise Daily
Exercise is a great stress blaster! I will exercise for 30 minute(s) each day.
Waste
Use Reusable Bags
I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.
Simplicity
Less Screen Time
I will replace 30 minute(s) of screen time each day with other activities.
Food
Plant an Herb Garden
I will plant an herb garden in my home, workplace, or dorm room.
Health
Healthy Sleep
Effectively working for sustainability requires self care! I will commit to getting 60 more minute(s) of sleep each night to achieve at least 7 hours per night.
Waste
Personal Waste Audit
I will collect all of my unrecyclable, non-compostable trash to raise my awareness of how much I send to the landfill.
Energy
Turn it off
I will keep lights, electronics, and appliances turned off when not using them.
Food
Try a New Way to Prep
I will try a new method of food preparation, such as canning, pickling, or baking bread.

Pei-Pei Tsao 10/24/2018 9:35 AMUSE AN ENERGY METER - This is some thing everyone should do and repeat every few years -- gives you some idea of the electricity consumption and can save you money too! Borrowed a meter from the library a few years back and discovered that the stereo system on standby was costing $30/year. It's now plugged into a power bar and turned on only when needed.
