I will upgrade the windows or weatherstripping in my home or office to reduce air leaks and save on energy costs.

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

I will cook 1 meal(s) with zero-waste each day.

I will save up to 8 gallons (32 L) of water a day by installing a low-flow shower-head.

I will create a rain garden or bioswale or use rain barrels to collect water for outdoor watering needs.

I will fix faucets or report leaky faucets to facilities that have been wasting up to 3 gallons (11 L) of water per faucet every day.

I will save up to 6 gallons (23 L) of water each day by taking 5-minute showers.

I will advocate for alternatives to single-use packaging at local grocery stores, markets, at work, or on campus to reduce pollution in the environment and in local communities.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 3 minute(s) each day to reflect on things important to me.

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